This is 1 of 4 posts of photographs that I took at Lakeview Cemetery in New Canaan, CT this past week.

Posts 1 and 2 show this stunning looking bird I was able to photograph (for the first time). It is a Killdeer and is in the Plovers family of birds.

You can see it doing its "broken wing act" in my second blog post.

This bird (and the few others I saw) were making the deet-deet-deet call sound.

The first photo is my entry for the following:

Fantastic photos, in the previous posts, too. What sort of bird is this? It's not one I recognise from here. Have a great day, Valerie

I've never seen a Killdeer. Beautiful bird and stunning photo. Needs a Teddy in the shot. Enjoy your day.

We have killdeer here but usually out in the less well-developed suburbs where I've seen them blending into roadside gravel. Your photos are clear shots. They are fun birds to watch :)
