The title really says it all. Another wet day (mixed with mist) and although it's dry this evening the foxes have kept away. So just a couple of photos tonight of the latest arrivals at Falmer Pond: a small clutch of moorhen chicks. There are actually four of them, but one was taking a morning swim when I took these shots.
Camera note: all shots taken with the Canon 7D and EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L USM IS lens.

Bizarre-looking birds!
:alien: chicks!!!
😀
These ones look even more alien than usual.
Still raining up here.
Adele, These were very young indeed when I got the shots. It's strange how sleek they become at the juvenile stage and then manage to lose their looks again as they turn into adults.
dW, once they hit the water they bob about like black cotton balls!
Darko :spock: 😉
