Moorhen

The Common Moorhen.

I don't know why it's called 'common' this is the first one I've seen this year!

Loads of coots, but only this solitary moorhen.

The rain has filled up the lakes to overflowing, everywhere is boggy and a bit slimy, but the water birds don't care.

Tess laid down in a puddle? What?

Too wet for the allotment.

Football on telly then.
