vincentoiseau 83 Posted June 28, 2019 Coot chicks aren't good looking, but they are just as sweet as any young animal. It's just our inclination to project our notion of beauty onto animals that causes a dissemination in views. The red spot around the eyes which disappears in later life makes it easier for their mother to recognize them. Your comments are very welcome. Link to comment
Giangiorgio Crisponi 496 Posted June 29, 2019 Yhese chicks are in fact not very beautiful but their plumage is characteristic, their parents are very caring and feed them with small vegetable morsels it is a pleasure to observe them in nature even if very suspicious, ciao Giangiorgio Link to comment
vincentoiseau 83 Posted June 30, 2019 Hi Giangiorgio, you are right, the parents care for them very well. I like to watch the interaction between chicks and their parents too. Thanks for your friendly comment! Kind regards, Vincent Link to comment
pablowarko 1 Posted January 7, 2020 Too cute for words, Vincent. Excellent focus on the eye and beautiful colors, light and composition. Great looking body fuzz. I like the choice of bird position in the frame. I love the look of the feet and legs in the water. You captured them at the perfect time. Best regards, Paul. Link to comment
vincentoiseau 83 Posted January 7, 2020 Hi Paul, thank you for your friendly comments! The coot chicks aren't good looking, but they are cute indeed. I could capture these lovely little birds very easily from the blind in beautiful morning light. Kind regards, Vincent Link to comment
