Not the most attractive of offspring with its emerging stumpy wings but nevertheless quite cute.
This young Moorhen and its siblings seem to be doing very well with a busy Mother in constant attendance to their needs.
With Pike in the gravel pits and predators overhead I wish them well.
I'm not sure which bird produces the ugliest off spring, Moorhens or Coots. Definately a child a mother can love :-)
