Don't know what kind of bird this is but the mom was keeping an eye on the little chick.

Killdeer make their nests on the ground, many times in gravel. That is probably why your picture is on a road

Killdeer moms are very protective and often feign injury to deflect attention from any young ones nearby. Fun to watch. Nice pics.

Yes, a Killdeer. You should see one sometime faking a broken wing. They are very convincing. Nice shots.

They are really cute... it appears from the white line on the pavement that she is teaching her chicks safety.... they appear to be using a crosswalk... :)
