Awe, how sweet this is. You are right, it is amazing to see this bond between parent and offspring.

A smashing shot, Malcolm. Young Coots are certainly strange looking little things.

Coots may be common but to capture one in this setting and to do it with a nice exposure of the dark head and light bill shows skill in shooting. The green foreground and BG are icing on the cake. Looks like a nice low angle, too. Awesome shot!

I would agree that you have achieved close to if not perfect exposure in this shot. It is a touching moment, a great behaviour capture. Love the angle too.
