…Before they become snacks to some predator or other – today there were:
Four Canada goslings; two greylag goslings; four mallard ducklings and four moorhen chicks on Manningham Park Lake. I’d not noticed the moorhen nesting underneath a patch of nettles on one of the islands -but then they aren’t quite as public as the coots with their mounds of sticks & plastic detritus.
