This is one of the parents that has chicks running along the river and they were very watchful, trying to lure me away from the chicks.

Boarischa Krautmo, aNNa schramm, Ronald Losure, Tanja - Loughcrew have particularly liked this photo

Ja, sie heissen wirklich so. Ihr lautes Schreien hoert sich so an, als ob ein Reh abgestochen wird.

Excellent photo. I think the name is simply because they say "killdeer, killdeer" when they are flying, and has nothing to do with killing deer.

Thanks, Ron.

I explained the name by saying the call of the birds sounds like a deer is being killed.

Danke, Volker, ich hatte Glueck, der Fluss ist nicht sehr breit. Ja, es ist ein Keilschwanz-Regenpfeier.
