I'm Wounded (4)

KC Countryside view map

THIS KILDEER MUST HAVE HAD A NEST NEARBY AS SHE
DID NOT FLY; INSTEAD RAN A FEW STEPS AND THEN SPREAD
HER WING FEATHERS AS IF SHE HAD A BROKEN WING.. THEN
SHE WOULD WALK A FEW STEPS AND REPEAT.. WHEN I STARTED
TO WALK AWAY, SHE AMAZINGLY RECOVERED AND WAS NO LONGER
PRETENDING TO BE INJURED... NATURE IS SO VERY CLEVER..


I'M WOUNDED


I'M STILL INJURED


I'M HEALED.. MIRACLE

I love watching them do this, Tom and you got some really great shots of the acting!
Super work my friend. ~

All nicely detailed shots, and illustrate this bird's clever behaviour. Well done.
