In the book Stories of Animal Life, how does the chuck-will's-widow move its eggs when disturbed?

 title: 'Rhinoceros Birds.'

In the book Stories of Animal Life, the chuck-will's-widow exhibits remarkable behavior when disturbed. When an intruder is detected near the nest, the mother bird throws herself to the ground, ruffles her feathers, and limps or flutters away from the nest. This act is a distraction to lead the intruder away from her eggs. Once the danger is past, the wily mother recovers from her act and returns to her nest[1].

This clever strategy helps protect the eggs, ensuring their safety during vulnerable moments when the nest is threatened by predators or other disturbances[1].
