Coots on Tittenley Pool, near Market Drayton UK, 27th May '08.

The four surviving chicks being fed pond weed by their parents; male and female diving in open water then surfacing, but the chicks know not where...

Many thanks to Peck for help with the edit.

    I enjoy the coot diving style: they seem to hang suspended for an instant as they get themselves straight-on before they plunge.

    John, thanks for the comment - hopefully if I make a "Born Under a Thorn 4" that might show the youngsters starting to dive and possibly taking their first low level flights across the water.

    All the best, Nigel.
