My oh my- Tim, these images are delightful! I'd never have thunk baby coots would look like this.
But what the heck kind of camouflage is THAT? Apparently it works, because there continues to be adult coots every year.
Thanks for the unique experience of seeing these critters- it's sure a first for me.

Thanks so much Charlie, these have been on my wish list for some time,
I'm glad I had the chance this year.

Tim, these are wonderful. Love them all. Never dreamed this is what baby coots would look like. I would have mistaken them for moorhens with that orange beak. Really delightful shots

Thanks so much Birdie, it's amazing when nature throws us a curveball

Wow, I never have seen the babies before, what awesome colors. Too bad they can't stay that way their whole life.
#1 and 3 for me Tim and TFS.
Thanks Herb,
That would be cool it they would stay that way, I went back just 2 days later and the
yellow was not so prominent
they are so lovely
I almost used that for the header but I thought a little on the corny side, glad someone
