Here's something to watch out for this weekend, if you go for a stroll in your local park, along a river or stream or just about anywhere with a little bit of water.
Meet Mr and Mrs Moorhen (who both look the same - to us, at least)
This is Junior Moorhen - the same size as the adults but dull brown all over. And yes - moorhens do climb trees. They've got long claws.
And here's Baby Moorhen - small, black and fluffy. Not sure if it's cute or not. What do you think?
The really interesting thing about the Family Moorhen is that the older chicks from this year sometimes help to feed their younger brothers and sisters. Moorhens can have two broods per year, laying between 5-7 eggs each time, so the parents must be glad of some extra help.
Let us know if you spot this fascinating behaviour, and if you think the chicks are cute or ugly...
Cute!!
