When a predator approaches, the American avocet employs a distraction tactic to protect its eggs. The adult bird often feigns injury by dragging one wing along the ground, luring the predator away from the nest. This behavior, known as the "broken wing display," helps divert attention and increases the chances of the eggs' survival. Additionally, the avocet may also vocalize loudly to alert other birds and deter the predator.
