Too Cute For Words
It was funny to observe this Coot's nest, as there would be no activity, with all the chicks hidden under mom (or dad, as they took turns keeping the chicks warm), but the moment one of the adult coot's arrived at the nest with a leech, all the chicks would appear out from under mom or dad, and make a mad dash for the waters edge, wanting to be fed first.
I wish dad would hurry with lunch, as its cold out here, and once I eat one of those delicious leechs that he has been bringing us, I'm going back to the nest and warm up under mom's down covered tummy.
