This Way Children !!!

Back at Silent Pool but this time on the Sherbourne Pond we see a new family of coots on the water. Whilst I was there one of the littl'uns got somewhat tangled in some surface weed, some others visiting there before me said it had been caught up for at least a quarter of an hour and it was out of reach to help in any way. After a while and some vain struggles the mum came over and the other people there said that she gave the trapped little one some food and swam off- next thing toddler is free and chasing after her. A happy ending for you all. I do not think these young coots are going to win any beauty contests soon.
