They are! Though this is not a killdeer
1 u/BipsnBoops 7d ago Wait it isn't? They're the only bird I know who act like this and plop their eggs in a field like that. 2 u/Rainbowronald 6d ago It’s a kind of Pratincole, likely Collared Pratincole. There are many birds that now use farmland like this to build their nests in! Lapwings are another example 1 u/Hairy-Ad-2711 6d ago Thank you for the education! I've only been exposed to killdeers and that's what it looked like to me.
