Description
The KIlldeer, Charadrius vociferus, is a large plover found both along the coast and inland locations. This wild bird was feeding in the shallow water at low tide. While often thought of as a shorebird, they can be seen in pastures and fields in inland locations. Their nests are almost always built near shallow water where chicks can feed easily.. Killdeer are year round residents in the Carolinas.
Cedar Island is located in eastern Carteret County and is part of the Crystal Coast. Traditionally a fishing village the other main employer is the NC Ferry System. There is a terminal on the island which carries travelers across Pamlico Sound to Ocracoke and the Outer Banks.
