More young birds trying to be cute
Jul. 6th, 2008 07:54 pmWhen my mother came up to visit last weekend, I made sure to take her on a walk through Canary Wharf - partly to admire the architecture, and partly to give her a chance to see some of our residents.

Great Crested Grebe with what was clearly her second clutch of eggs, as there was a chick hanging around...

I have no idea what it was doing, and by the looks of it I don't thing Mum did either.

Perhaps it was angling to be turned into some sort of LOLCat...?

After a while, it tried looking more conventionally cute.

...perhaps inspired by this other Grebe chick we found further up the dock.
