This Killdeer parent was discovered at Deer Run Forest Preserve and had four young chicks. The chicks mistakenly came out in the open, but were well protected by their aerial mom (or dad).

A killdeer in Canada that wouldn’t SHUT UP during 12 hour shifts I had to work seriously turned me off to these birds. However, those chicks are just SOOOO adorable! Perhaps I can give them another chance.
They are noisy for sure, but shorebird chicks are always adorable!!
