This, I think, is a Killdeer. Killdeer are a type of plover. They get their name from the calls they make. The Shorebird Guide by O’Brien, Crossley, and Karlson was very instrumental in helping me to identify this guy. I took this shot two weeks ago as he was working the south side of Short Beach in Nissequogue. JK
Yes, you are correct. Nice pic.
Thanks, Scott. I really appreciate any and all help in identifying the subjects of my pics. JK
