Killdeer On The Carmans

Friday, July 22, 2011

Here’s a couple shots of a Killdeer on the Lower Carmans River. I took these two years ago today but I never got around to posting them. There’s been a lot of that over the years. I’m afraid my zeal for taking photographs is no match for my immeasurable laziness when it comes to posting the pics themselves. JK

Killdeer

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
