Cute coot

There's something a bit prehistoric about baby coots. Cute though. I had some things to do in Petersfield today so I decided to have a little wander round the Heath to see if there were any cygnets around. I got caught in the first of two hail showers shortly after leaving the car and consequently didn't take many pictures. I didn't see any cygnets either but there should be some soon.

Later I got caught in more hail just after departing Cafe Nero with a hazelnut latte and chicken and pesto panini in one hand and a paper Fat Face bag in the other. I made it back to the car with the remains about five minutes later, cold, wet and somewhat bedraggled.
