Last year was the first year I discovered coots nesting at the Lagoon here in Palmy, then went back again in a few weeks to see their interesting young ones once they had hatched. I remembered that today, when I spotted a few unexpected ducklings in the Square, so I decided to head off down to the Lagoon for a wander. Here is one of the Australasian coots I saw nesting, only a few metres from the lagoon edge.
Great photo! Now we will expect a photo of the hatched chicks.

Yes, I don't think it will be long before they hatch- I will go there next weekend!
ReplyDeleteThere were two spam comments in my inbox after your comment- but they weren't here: blogger caught them as spam and left them for me to check. Yeah! So hopefully that is one spammer who won't bother trying again!
