<p class="ql-block">6/4/2026:</p><p class="ql-block">今天和曹老师步行去Aldi 买菜，回来路经Aldi旁边的轮胎店停车埸，突然见前面不远处一只象麻雀的小鸟在蹦跳，长脚，跳得很快，以为它要飞走了，结果我们继续往前走时，它又跳回靠近我们。这才发现它不是麻雀。</p> <p class="ql-block">奇特的动作</p> <p class="ql-block">从没见过这种鸟，就打开手机拍照</p> <p class="ql-block">向我们靠近</p> <p class="ql-block">以为它受伤了不能飞，或是向我们求救？</p> <p class="ql-block">即时搜索Goog|e Lens，原来完全不是我们所猜想的。</p><p class="ql-block">真有意思! 又见到了解到一种新的鸟了。</p> <p class="ql-block">Translated from Gemini search result:</p><p class="ql-block">这只鸟是基氏鹬（Charadrius vociferus），一种独特而迷人的鹬类（一种常出现在远离水域的田野、草坪和高尔夫球场的滨鸟）。</p><p class="ql-block">如何识别它</p><p class="ql-block">特征：在第一张图片 29206.jpg 中，您可以清晰地看到它最显著的特征：白色胸前两条醒目的黑色横纹，以及被鲜艳橙红色眼圈环绕的大而深色的眼睛。</p><p class="ql-block">“受伤翅膀”的表演：第二张图片 29219.jpg 捕捉到了一种非常著名且引人注目的行为。当捕食者（或人类）过于靠近它们的巢穴时，成年基氏鹬会假装受伤。它会展开双翼，张开鲜艳的橙棕色尾巴，拖着身体在地上爬行，同时发出痛苦的叫声。</p><p class="ql-block">重要提示：如果您在 29219.jpg 中看到这只鸟在表演这种行为，这意味着您当时离它的巢穴非常近！ 美洲金翅雀不会在树上筑造传统的巢穴；相反，它们会将伪装性极强的鸟蛋直接产在地面的砾石、木屑或裸露的土壤中。这只鸟试图引诱你跟随它，从而避开它藏匿的鸟蛋或雏鸟。</p> <p class="ql-block">What is this bird?</p><p class="ql-block">From Gemini:</p><p class="ql-block">This bird is a Killdeer (Charadrius vociferus), a unique and fascinating type of plover (a shorebird that is frequently found in fields, lawns, and golf courses far away from water).</p><p class="ql-block">How to Identify It</p><p class="ql-block">The Markings: In your first image, 29206.jpg, you can clearly see its most distinctive feature: the two bold, black bands across its white breast, along with its large dark eyes ringed in bright orange-red.</p><p class="ql-block">The "Broken-Wing" Display: Your second image, 29219.jpg, captures a highly famous and dramatic behavior. When a predator (or a human) gets too close to their nest, an adult Killdeer will fake an injury. It spreads its wings, fans out its bright orange-brown tail, and drags itself along the ground while making a distressed crying sound.</p><p class="ql-block">Important Note: If you saw the bird doing the display in 29219.jpg, it means you were very close to its nest! Killdeer don't build traditional nests in trees; instead, they lay their heavily camouflaged eggs directly on the ground in gravel, woodchips, or bare soil. The bird was trying to trick you into following it away from its hidden eggs or chicks.</p>
