Karen Wilkinson had spotted a Killdeer nest in July. The mother bird had laid her eggs in the gravel and rocks alongside the Gualala River. When Karen checked recently, she saw three Killdeer chicks.
Here's a photo of one of the parents.
These beautiful birds are plovers. They are quite graceful, I think!
Thanks to Karen for allowing me to share her photos with you here.
It's kind of a strange weather day. The fog seems to be battling with the sun. Round 1 went to the fog, round 2 to the sun, and on it goes.
