All the Way Past Third Base

I know where the killdeer like to stay this time of year - the old baseball field had 4 killdeer - I started out peeking close to the batter's plate and he was around the pitcher's mound. Spotted and the chase was on. Finally got where I could get a shot way out past 3rd base. They don't like my camera!

They are such funny little birds, and yes, a bit elusive. Your persistence paid off here.
