Moorhen and Chick

Moorhen LeedsPicture of a moorhen in Leeds city centre.

I walked down along Victoria Quays on the Leeds waterfront this afternoon. I heard an odd small cheeping sound from out near the middle of the old dock, it was coming from a young moorhen chick. I watched for a few minutes and sure enough the mother moorhen was nearby but partly hidden by the water lilies and other water plants.

I only had a relatively short lens on my camera, if I get a chance I will go back one day next week with a bigger stabilized lens.
