Stand-off at Atlantic Wharf
The coot on the right had, about 15 seconds previously, attacked one of the chicks of the pair on the left. The chick, which had strayed a bit too far for safety, had swiftly been rescued by one of the parents. The attacker remained for some minutes in the vicinity of the other pair's nest, making occasional aggressive moves towards the nest and the nearby chicks, moves which were immediately challenged by the parents. It then returned to the vicinity of its own nest, about 40 yards away.

Atlantic Wharf crane, Cardiff
The quayside crane was donated to South Glamorgan County Council by Associated British Ports in 1986. The 15 ton capacity electric crane (No 5) was built by Stothert & Pitt Ltd in 1933 for the Great Western Railway. It was erected in the commercial dry dock adjacent to the Roath Basin. Originally used for ship repair work, the crane was moved to the north side of Queen Alexandra Dock in 1970. Here it was used as a heavy lifting appliance for a variety of general cargoes. In 1981 the crane was adapted to be a grabbing crane for scrap metal cargoes. It was decommissioned in January 1987.
