What an awesome set, Karl! Those wide shots are awesome but I love roosting mama in #1 the most.
I gotta visit N&W more often.

Thank you Jeff. Glad you like the wide shots as well as the tight one of Mama. I have a load more to share another time! Yes you should visit here more often, and post

Hello Joshua, I am glad you enjoyed the series giving credit to how devoted to care for their nest they are. Appreciate the compliment on the images as well, thank you!

Many years ago, I obviously was close to a nest that I did not see , as I saw the poor dear killdeer do the broken wing distraction. I felt so badly having disturbed her keeping her eggs warm that I did not go back to the area. I have to really admire the tenacity and bravery these little ones display trying to protect their babies.
Really interesting set and photographed beautifully, but my heart still goes out to the poor adult getting frightened enough to try and lure you away. Glad you were able to have them get use to your presence.
Thanks Morris!
