    Coots, relative peace (Fulica atra)

    The peace among the Coots (Fulica atra) is rather unnatural, during the winter gathering the truce is always fleeting, and the peace for the Coots is the Romana pax

I have two queries if anyone has any ideas why...

    Told you I had a better one of the coot chicks. In spite of the stick in the front. In spite of the yucky-looking water and consequent doubts about what exactly she's feeding them. Those eager chick faces make the pic. ;)

    Coots - I bit the bullet today and went to the Somerset Levels even though it's a mile from the C/P to the hide and I didn't know how I would get on carrying all my gear. OK I guess. It was coots day when I got there. This is a small sample, as small as my lens would go @ 300mm. There were...
