Shalu this series has been/is fascinating and exceptional photography.
Really shows off the tussles of bird life.
Very nice indeed

Not sure why this juvenile appeared to be much larger than the adults. They were distant, this is over 50% crop of my 90d, overcast sky.

whilst hidden down in the reeds juveniles were at play. I think there were 3 until mother called them to order :-)

I especially like the first image, Richard. I love the look on her face. :-D
