A couple of Moorhens were swimming around too, but not quite close enough to get both in the frame. This one wasn't too far away from the car but it meant, unfortunately, that I couldn't get out so had to take this through the windscreen.- delia todd

Bathing
Birdforum's Andy Rowlands lives not too far from my brother, so I usually try to meet up with him for a day's birding when I'm down there. This time we met at Pontypool and at lunchtime we sat beside the canal. I was watching a Moorhen having a bath on the other side and took a few pictures...- delia todd

Merseyside pond babies - 3

Some fragments of educational behaviours of the Common Moorhens (Gallinula chloropus) on the chicks, are very frequent but the reason is rarely understood. It seems violent but, the "shaken" chicks come out only a little stunned, on the contrary, the chick remains very disappointed.- Ornitomania
