New Arrival
Adult supervising a newly-hatched coot chick which is less than 1 day old.
Coots are medium-sized water birds that are members of the Rallidae (rail) family. They are close relatives of Image Coots, and are often seen swimming in open water such as here, on the Manchester Bolton and Bury Canal at Radcliffe. Adults have predominantly black plumage and, in contrast to the moorhen, have a white bill and frontal face shield. The young chicks have orange-tipped plumes which make them very distinctive (and conspicuous to would-be predators such as foxes). The orange plumage usually begins to fade after about a week.
