Some new moorhen chicks have hatched. There is usually a second brood which is interesting as the juveniles from the first brood get roped into assisting with the upbringing. The first broods seemed to be about eight chicks from two sets of parents of which maybe four are still there. The second lot is at least four chicks. I was woken up by the heron this morning. I hope he doesn't get at the chicks.
