A sandpiper (woodcock) set up a little nest right in front of our house. I was extremely happy to see the little creature trusting the neighbourhood. Here is she sitting on the eggs.
Trying to lure me away from the nest pretending to be injured.
The eggs in the nest
I surrounded the nest with warning tape to make sure people will not accidentally step onto it.

A not too happy update. Just a few days after I took these pictures, the whole nest along with the markers around it has disappeared. The nest was certainly not robbed by a fox or other hungry predator. A human decided that there was no room for the birds in the park. Sad.
