These cooties (baby coots) were out with their parent in Alberta, Canada
The American coot,also known as a mud hen or pouldeau, is a bird of the family Rallidae. Though commonly mistaken for ducks, American coots are only distantly related to ducks, belonging to a separate order. Unlike the webbed feet of ducks, coots have broad, lobed scales on their lower legs and toes that fold back with each step which facilitates walking on dry land- wiki

Another from the Tawny Family portrait session last week.
A white stork nest in the wildlife park Eekholt. These storks are no more able to fly away because of injuries in the past. They found their home in the wildlife park after being rescued and are visited every summer by their old partners who never forgot them and return every spring. They build their nests on the ground now and raise their chicks. It is always again so touching to watch them.

This grouping of "Hare's Foot Inkcap Mushrooms" reminds me of a family.
The Hare's Foot Inkcap ( Coprinopsis lagopus) can be seen in small groups on soil or leaf litter in woodlands and in rarer occasions out in field scenarios as early as May and right through to the late autumn months. They are common in most parts of Britain and Ireland and throughout mainland Europe. It is also found in many other parts of the world including much of Asia and North America.
It got it's common english name from the way the young furry-like fruiting body is reminiscent of a hare's foot-abiet poking up from the ground.
Hare's Foot Incaps grow up to 12-13 cm.
The family that Trick or Treats together, stays together!
