Killdeer
The Killdeer uses quite a different display to guard against large hoofed animals. It fluffa itself up, displaying its tail over its head, and runa at the beast to attempt to make it change its path.

Super-image of this Killdeer!!! As to Linsay's question; it is the bird's call, what it is named after. Gr. Erik www.pbase.com/eriksanders
