Moor Hen chicks
5 Answers
About 2 years ago a fox killed all the ducks on our village pond. Now we have a common or garden duck and drake who look very contented and a Mor Hen family with 4 (or maybe 5) chicks. They're little 2" balls of black fluff with tiny red beaks. I don't know why but this has made my weekend.

I longed for spring and early summer so I could stop on the bridge and watch the little mallards, and moorhens, as you said little balls of black fluff, and of course the cygnets. Later on in the season I'd have to duck to avoid low flying swifts, always felt better just for seeing the "waterbabies" on the river
