I saw this killdeer (Charadrius vociferus) in Texas, standing right on top of a little grassy knoll and giving me a nearly perfect profile. You can find killdeer all over North America, but this one posed like it knew it was being photographed.

Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.
