Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Coot Chicks on their Nest on the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal. Water fowl chicks leave their nests as soon as possible after hatching - as thick water edge vegetation provides far better cover than the nest. The fact that these three coot chicks were still on their nest suggests that they had only just hatched. While I watched the mother called the chicks and one by one they left the nest 1310500 and entered the water, the mother then escorting them out of sight. I suspect that I was not noticed by the mother, at first, because of the bank of Cow Parsley 1310476, which also completely hid my dog, Franci, from the birds on the canal. |
