#1 I recognised it as a plover, and when you described the behaviour it's the same.
I looked it up and see it is a type of plover. That's the first time I've heard the killdeer name.
The young are so vulnerable and usually survive because of the good camouflage.
I'm surprised they would survive at all in an urban setting.

The parents do a fake broken wing ploy to lure predators away from the nest.
It is a very common bird in my area.
