Lazy Bird

Our caretaker found these birds up in the uncleared section of our land as he was doing some work. He referred to them as Lazy Bird because they find some leaves on the ground and lay their eggs, without building a typical nest. He found it strange that, when approached, the mother would flop away a bit and sit there then flop away again, instead of trying to fight and protect its young. I explained that it was trying to lead the predator away by playing injured, but he disagreed.
