Hi, folks. I've been visiting Dave's garden for years and just joined yesterday. Well, I'm so excited that the killdeer that are nesting in the stones that surround my pool hatched 3 chicks yesterday that I had to share. We have been calling the parents Ricky & Lucy because they are so excitable and always running around and yelling, so this baby is Little Ricky. I've been doing some research and understand that it is really tough to get good pix of killdeer, so please excuse the fuzziness. I couldn't get too close. In fact, when I went out to clean the pool later in the day, they moved the new family out of the pool enclosure, so these are probably the only shots I'll get.
