Description
This is a 14 x 18 acrylic painting on canvas of a bird called a "Killdeer".
A Killdeer is a shorebird you can see without going to the beach, Killdeer are graceful plovers common to lawns, golf courses, athletic fields, and parking lots.
The young stay in the nest until the day after being hatched, when they are led by their parents to a feeding territory ,generally with dense vegetation where hiding spots are abundant, where the chicks feed themselves. The young then fledge about 31 days after hatching, and breeding first occurs after one year.
The nonbreeding habitat of the killdeer includes coastal wetlands, beach habitats, and coastal fields. Its breeding grounds are generally open fields with short vegetation ,but locations such as rooftops are sometimes used, although it is a shorebird, it does not necessarily nest close to water.
