Babies

(American Coot at , Canada Geese at , and Mallards at the )

..………………………………………

An American Coot chick paddles among reeds in a pond. The chick is only a few days old, and so still has the wild orange and red coloring that makes it look like a little muppet lion. Three downy yellow Canada Geese goslings walk down a path. Four Mallard ducklings swim in a fountain.

…………………………………………………………………


A Snowy Egret stands by the shore of an inlet. His white feathers lay flat and straight against his body. He is staring into space and his expression makes it look like he is questioning all his life choices.
