This totally gormless young Coot has to be loved by some parent, difficult as it is to understand how! But both parents and a second hatchling were indeed close by.

diddy8000,

Its either from Mars, or some other planet! To be honest the little fella looked no better with his/her head still, almost completely bald with a few bright orange strands randomly standing out.
