How do nightjars like the chuck-will's-widow use distraction displays to protect their nests?

The text describes how nightjars like the chuck-will's-widow employ distraction displays to protect their nests. When an intruder approaches, the mother bird exhibits remarkable behavior, often pretending to be injured or in distress. This strategy involves throwing itself to the ground and fluttering away, moving gradually from the nest to lure the predator away from the vulnerable chicks^[1]. This cunning distraction effectively diverts attention and increases the chances of survival for the young^[1].
