These juvenile Moorhens are clearly hungry. They’ve fluttered up on top of a wall and are helping themselves to seeds which have been left for small birds.

And when they have picked the stones clean it’s time to make it across the path, back to the safety of the water.

I can see their extraordinary feet and feel pure joy at the experience of being so close to them.
