Not a pretty setting, but I couldn't resist this mother feeding her chick near a lake.

A wonderful behavioral capture of coot and chick, Carol. You timed this feeding shot perfectly to catch these two beak to beak. Heartwarming image!

Excellent behavior image, Carol. The light coming from the left lit up the body of the mother very nicely. Love the eyes and the feet of this species.

Superb capture Carol. Love the tenderness displayed and the intricate way they feed their young. Superb details when viewed large.
