The day of the balloon (气球) festival, I felt as light as a hot-air balloon. This year I wouldn't just be watching. I'd be riding in Mr. J's truck, following the balloon and meeting it when it came down.
It was a perfect day. Dad and I drove down the road around the lake and turned into the parking area. Dad pointed to the lake. "That's where you are to find the workers," he said.
We came to a stop and I got out of the car.
And then I saw a white bird with brown head and skinny legs. It cried and thrashed(拍打) in the dirt in front of the cars. Its wings looked broken. Suddenly it shrieked (悲鸣)and flew off.
"Dad," I called, but my father was watching the balloons.
"It's a killdeer(北美喧鹆)." I turned to see a silver- haired old woman. "It has a nest here somewhere," she said. "In the parking area?" I asked. She nodded firmly. "It was a nesting(筑巢) place before it became a parking area. !"
"Jack!" Dad called "It is time for us to meet Mr. J."
"I have to go." I said. But the woman pointed to with her walking stick. There was a clutch (一批) of killdeer's eggs. They were almost in the road of cars, trucks, and motorbikes. '
Suddenly, the parent bird was back, its wings twisted (扭曲) again. "Jack!" Dad called again. "Jack, the balloons are ready to come down."
"Dad! I am…" A truck roared over the hill. That is Mr. J. Dad jump on to the truck. "What's the matter? We must go now." asked Dad angrily from the truck.
