Nice to see them strolling through the grass. Nicely captured Chris.
 
A wonderful capture, Chris, and I don't think I have ever seen a picture of this bird on the grass.

Excellent profile of this beauty! They are amazingly adept at walking on land and surprisingly fast at getting back to the water when they feel threatened. Fantastic Chris!!!!
 
I do like moorhens, and this is a lovely study, Chris.
 
A fabulous, detailed close-up of a bird that is easily spooked, Chris !!! Thanks for sharing
