A killdeer had laid three speckled eggs on the pavitdijnt, luta ptte of-stanes,-near the edge -of ttr _ parking lot. No doubt when she picked her nesting site, nary a soul was to be seen, but on Saturday over 1000 peo- ple were milling around, and she was frantically ,flapping her wings and cheeping loudly to keep them from treading on her precious eaggs. She was exhausted by the end of the even- ing, but gamely standing her ground. One can only hope that her eggs hatch soon, before the regular Playhouse season starts, so she can lead- her babies to a safer spot!
