Can any of my peeps educate me as to what's going on here? The tracks are made by a little shorebird I think it's called a killdeer or a Dipper? Not big on birds that I don't eat. It spends its days wandering back and forth two spots on my pond that were being kept open by the Muskrat and have since froze over. This morning I look out there and it's laying beside the one hole. Crouch down whatever you call it when a bird has its butt on the ground. And I thought oh crap it's croaked! So I go to take a look at it. make short little flights around makes a distinctive noise I think that makes it a killdeer? And then eventually it flies off to the lake half mile to the north of me. It seems to be okay just confused. If anybody knows I would sure like to know what the heck is going on. That and I'm editing and I'm bored out of my gourd. LOL
