Common Moorhen chicks at Myrtle Pond
Recent activity at Myrtle Pond includes some new additions to the LSSI family, as Common Moorhens can be seen out and about with their chicks. Many of the chicks, especially on the south end of the pond, are only about a week old, and still very black and downy. There are also some older, more independent chicks throughout the pond; they can be distinguished by the similar markings to their parents, but more overall grayish color.
