Great video! thank you 👍👍146 💕💕
He looks offended...
Just saw one attacking eastern bluebirds in my backyard!
My favorite bird ❤
How do you even get to hold all of these random birds??
Thanks this was great and informative! Just saw one on my kayak ride this morning, identified by Merlin app in Cambridge Ontario.
how did you hold it
As a Yankees fan. Those are beautiful birds
I just seen 3 baby killdeer today... it inspired me to look for videos about them. I also went to another spot i knew there were eggs. That mama actually bluff charged me. So them eggs may be ready to hatch any moment
YUUSSSS THE ORCHESTRA IN THE BACKGROUND!!! THERE ARE HORNS IN THERE HELL YEA!!!!! … oh yeah, the bird is cool, BUT THE FRENCH HORN YEESSSSS!!!!! I PLAY HORN. I LOVE HORN!!!!!!
bruh called it boring to its face
One attacked me today. Thank you for identifying him. Brave bird. He hit the top of my head while running. My girlfriend said she got attacked by a bird in the same spot a little bit ago while running as well. Brave brave bird
Also he was found in the area of Mt. Pleasant, Michigan
They love nesting in asparagus fields! It was so funny to watch the grown-ups antics and when the babies hatched, they were like little grayish brown cotton balls running around! My favorite of all time!😊
What a beautiful bird it is
Too cute!
It’s so cute
Love that song 😍
Amazing bird
It was cern
I heard that truck backing up for about 6 hours at night last backpacking trip and did not know what it was
So cute ❤❤❤
The new song is better. Has a better vibe.
Please don't talk loud throughout the entire video. It ruins the experience. This is my first time hearing of this bird after just seeing one on another video. I chose to see yours to watch the walking and talking. You're voice and music should be cleaner and much lower so the birds are chirping louder to hear them. You also should do long pauses so we can enjoy the nature. Otherwise it's your show which is not what we wanna see. We wanna see the animals. :) The music takes away the observance of the natural nature scene. I hope this helps you do better in the future uploads.
I FINALLY attracted one to my feeder ❤️❤️ I love them
A family of these came through my property a few weeks ago here in the Heart of Dixie, and I had no idea what they were at the time. I took some crappy iPhone video, but it wasn't until last week that I knew what they were. Thanks to the Merlin app capturing the sound of them. There were about 6 babies, and the parents were leading them from East to West on my property. I just saw one of the parents again. A very large and most beautiful bird. I must buy a nice camera with a zoom lense. I put out feeders 2 years ago, and I have captured many not so great pics with my phone. The Killdeer is, by far, the most beautiful of them all.
i ran into some babies yesterday. they were extra cute lol
I agree. In my 60 years of banding I have had many encounters with these little guys.
Should post more
We have an abundance of these guys in Central Montana! I would find them all over! As a kid, I thought of them as my friends and would often go out and sit in the prairie and watch them and pretend to have a conversation with them. The males - I'm presuming - often didn't like me around at first but over time they stopped caring and would leave me alone. These birds have a special place in my heart!
Sad
He knows you are talking about him. I can see it in his eyes. So cute.
I love sparrows. My Dad always fed them. I can remember being very young and watching them eat. My brother and I called them Peeps before we could say sparrow.
Amazing video
what a cutie
One of the best songs - amazingly unique sound.
One great Woodpecker mommy ❤
let him go you are hurting his legs
He’s so cute. ❤
you think its a "coincidence" that the baseball team is named the Baltimore Orioles? They named it after the bird lmao
So adorable
That’s sad I will never use insecticides anymore
Why do you have to handle them. Dedicated bird watchers would never do that. Buy a camera please.
This video is so informative thank u very cooll
🍊🍊🍊🍑
Why is he squeezing the legs? That hurts the animal and can break the bones
Ive got a killdeer nesting right next the the place i work at. She has four eggs, and she's super cute. I check on her daily, and put up a traffic cone nearby so that no one runs them over with the lawn mower. I hope they all do well and i can't wait to see the babies hatched
I lobe to hear these. The sound of summer in the boreal.
Both super cute looking
????? How about the song sparrow???? It’s VERY difficult to differentiate many common birds. Please put out videos on common sparrows and finches!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
WOW!!!! Priceless video!!!!! 🌸🙂🙂🌸
Today on migratory bird day 2024, Merlin ID app says I heard one of these in western pa. Also a Cape May Warbler. It's heard a lot of different types of warblers in the past week. I hope the ID is real and not a false positive. What a cool bird.
