Saw this Momma Killdeer Bird protecting her eggs

From a website: The Killdeer bird often makes a shallow nest on the ground. If it's eggs or young are threatened it goes into "broken wing" mode and walks away on one leg to lure predators away from it's young.

I didn't want to get closer as she was upset already by our presence, so I filmed a short clip and let her be.
