V. Memmler 1942 Kildeer, Oxyechus vociferus vociferus May 16, Inspiration Point, Lelden Regional Park, Contra Costa Co., Calif. 7:45PM The nest observed on May 2 was relocated by me today. As I approached the sitting bird darted off and away from the nest and began flopping about as if wings and tail were injured. The nest was very difficult to see as before. There were 4 eggs this time with the small ends to the center. The bird returned to the nest at once after I left it undisturbed. May 30, The sitting bird left the nest as before 2:00PM when we approached, starting to flop and flutter. But when we approached the nest still closer she returned to within 2 yds of us and gave loud ear-rending single noted crys until we retreated.
