New Life.

 A very young Coot and not particularly handsome at this stage of its new life ....


 ..... but at least its parents think differently.


Young Mallard however definitely have that 'ooh .. aah' factor.  FAB.

    That young Coot doesn't look a whole lot different than some teenagers I've seen! LOL. Nice pics, FAB.

    It never ceases to amaze me how young Coots change so much as they grow.
    A good job their parents love them, looking like that. I doubt they'd ever feature on an Easter card lol

    Great images. The coot looks like a little old man. Perhaps that is where we get the phrase "Old Coot" when referring to an old man?
