Killdeer - Photograph

This is 2 of 4 posts of photographs that I took at Lakeview Cemetery in New Canaan, CT this past week.

In the second photograph, this Killdeer is doing its "broken wing act." I wondered why this bird was fluttering its wings as it crouched low to the ground: now I know. This bird does a ""broken-wing" act, in which it flutters along the ground in a show of injury, luring intruders away from its nest."
