Could you speak to the exhibition management and see if they would allow
you to fence off a small area where the Killdeer normally stay? Just
some posts and a rope might be enough. Seems like some attempt to save
the chicks should be made.

Normally a pair of killdeer nest on the grounds and the
young are at the point where they can fly, so usually this
is not a problem. This is not the case this year. The pair
have four young and they would need a week or a week and a
half yet before flight. I watched the one adult today with
the four young. Someone had two dogs and was throwing a
ball for the dogs and the adult killdeer as you can imagine
was freaking out. She successfully led the young away from
the dogs and had them by the road when I walked by. The
exhibition officially starts tomorrow and set-up is still
ongoing. It is in the area where the adult killdeer and
young usually tend. The parking area will be full where
they could go when activity is on the grounds, but tomorrow
that area will be occupied and there will be people activity
all over the place. I suspect the young will not make it
through the week. We shall see what happens though. </span></font>
