Baby Baby

Tiny, cute and squeaking very like small toys the  3 little grebe babies were ploutering around in the shallows of the reeds but also very wary. It was pure chance that I spotted this youngster all because of the peeps, before it dived and then swam though the stalks out of sight but not sound! 

On way back from Yorkshire seeing mum and dad I decided to pop into Old Moor Nature Reserve and on any other day I think it would have been awash with activity. As it was, it was incredibly windy up there, cloud cover and showers being the norm which don't bode well for dragons or any other bird activity really. Nice potter round though though getting home the sat nav took me through Birmingham city centre which was pretty hideous.
