Mrs_Ed, early in this thread you asked to see a photo of the Killdeer nest surrounded by the orange cones. I did go back today and she is still sitting on the nest. The eggs have been in the nest for at least 14 days. It normally takes 24 to 28 days of incubating for the chicks to hatch. I probably won't follow-up on the progress since the chicks usually leave the nest right after birth.
