Charadrius vociferus, Killdeer. Large plover found throughout North America in coastal wetlands and beach habitats. Its breeding grounds are generally open fields with short vegetation. It feeds on insects, although other invertebrates and seeds are eaten. It forages almost exclusively in fields, especially those with short vegetation and with cattle and standing water. Can be very vocal; listen for loud namesake “kill-deer” call.
