more moorhens

The moorhen didn't show up yesterday and I wondered if it had gone for good. But today it's back bringing another one with it. The two are sticking close together and are only venturing into the edge of the garden as yet. One is more adventurous but the other hangs back. It would be so brilliant to see them with chicks later on. I'll try to find a large shallow tray for water that I can leave on the margin of the garden so that they might feel more at home.

This is getting very exciting!
But aren't you actually somewhere else this week?? You didn't REALLY cancel cos of the moorhen, did you? Hope it's proving relaxing anyway :-)
