Seven cute little cootlets keeping us very busy ....

Goodness me... and now I have seven to look after!  Its a good job I have some help.... one of them seems reluctant to come swimming.

But they are always hungry!!

And of course I'm pretty busy myself..... as I now have 4 little ones!

And Mr Heron is keeping his beady eye on us - I'm going to have to keep my eye on him!!

Mrs Moorhen has a little one but she is keeping it very quiet.  Both are shy - can you spot her youngster hiding behind her?

And this is a female Banded Damosel having a rest - very different from the male - no band and bright green!!!

Breakfast in bed!

A baby coot - but not mine!

"Five little ducks went swimming one day".....

A banded damosel

Mother ducks nap time.

Today on the pool ...... 
I've been dozing but others have been busy....

Sleepy Coot.... zzzzz

Oh I'm so fickle!  Back in the middle of the pool again.  But..... I think I won the 'best nest' competition at the Carnival!!

The cygnets (now three) are having weed spotting lessons from Mum....

The warblers are warbling....

And the cuckoo is cuckooing A LOT!!
