I came across these Shelduck Chicks on the busy promenade at Rossall, there was no sign of the parent birds, although they were probably around in the sand dunes keeping a low profile from all the people. They toddled off along a path and was there that I saw the opportunity to get them lined up with a nice backdrop.

Thanks for viewing my photos and for any favourites and comments, it’s much appreciated 👍

Great Egret chicks about 4-5 weeks old, still very downy. Usually one parent stays with them at the nest until the chicks are 3-4 weeks old, when both parents will sometimes start to leave to forage for food.

This was an interesting encounter. This little wood duck chick seemed to be on its own, with no other wood ducks around. But there was a family of common gallinules nearby and one of the parents kept trying to scoot the wood duck over into their family, almost as if they were adopting it.

A cute little Killdeer chick posed so nicely for me.

Another shot of this chick/juvenile in the water lilies.

Many thanks for stopping by always appreciated.

This chick is 7-10 days old

Our three new chicks at about 4 weeks of age:

Snow Drop, Inky and Peanut. Named by my Grandson.

Enjoying the sun on their roost.

They already love scratching around the garden and exploring looking for bugs etc. Lets hope we get some eggs when they are older.

This killdeer chick is not one that I saw hatched a few weeks ago. Still closely guarded by a parent, yet quick enough to elude the parent on occasion, allowing a bit closer shooting.

I was super excited to see and photograph burrowing owls with chicks. My husband and I found a few different nests and were able to witness some wonderful behavior. Here the chicks posed nicely in front of a pond.

Happy Mother's Day :)

About ten days old chick, looks similar to its father (look at the first link, about 5-7 days old). An offspring of my rescued cockerel, Anuradha, sometime mid last year. Anuradha and his missus, Lalita had eleven chicks, their first.

There were several Arctic Tern chicks around on the Isle of May. Unless they moved, they were quite difficult to spot.

The parents did their utmost to protect their young by dive-bombing anyone that stood around for too long and quite often drew blood.

This is our first Great Blue Heron chick. Picture was taken on January 11th. He's getting big!

Thanks so much for the visit!

Heron chicks taken a couple of weeks after the first image I posted. It won't be long before they're ready to fledge.

As always, thank you so much for stopping by and for leaving any comments or faves, they are very much appreciated.

This will be the last photo of this mini series of the chick eating the fish. Yes it took a long time but it did eat the whole fish. Amazing to watch and photo.

These chicks are so tiny that it is hard to see and photograph them at times. This one came closer to me :-)! Piping plovers are a threatened and endangered species!

This image is for Joan and Martha! Happy weekend!! :-)

Same chick, still working on that fish that the parent feed to it.

As always, many thanks for taking the time to view, fave and comment. That's very much appreciated

Stay safe!

I spent quite sometime watching this youngster, at first it disappeared into the bales but after a while it's confidence grew and it fully accepted my presence.

This chick is 7-10 days old

A Common Loon and its chick in the Colville National Forest in Washington State. "A hungry loon family can put away a lot of fish. Biologists estimate that loon parents and their 2 chicks can eat about a half-ton of fish over a 15-week period."

All three great horned owl chicks have fledged now and can fly very well. I still see them sitting in the same trees and now and then right next to each other :-).
