I'm going with Rob's alt' theme for #BirdOfTheDay today of #Coots&Moorhens. Here's a slightly blurry #Moorhen sneaking past a Mallard & Black Headed Gull on the river bank. #birds

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Waders; any wading bird.

And so, from down on the delta, and covered in water droplets, a moorhen not actually wading...

🐥 A moorhen and her tiny chicks!

Spotted along the Malaquis path near Amiens, this Common Moorhen wasn’t alone… Two tiny balls of black fluff were following her around. 🥰🌿

Can we call them water chicks? 😆💧

Moorhens flip the script. The females do the fighting over mates. The heaviest hens win the scraps then pair off with the smallest fattest males around. Chubby little chap wins the day.

Goeiemorgen allemaal🙋‍♀️🐕🐾 deze jonge #waterhoen liet zich makkelijk op de foto zetten, was wat aan eten van de grassen. En de ijsvogel hier gezien, had ik te laat in de gaten. Fijne maandag iedereen🫶🤗🐶 #nature #platteland #moorhen #chick
