The proud Mum

with her two little Dikkop chicks sitting on her feet. They are two days old and born in my neighbours front garden. They are so small and blend in so well, I had problems seeing them. Bob

So did I! If you hadn't mentioned two chicks I would have thought she was alone.

I never would have seen the chicks if you hadn't mentioned them! Excellent shot!

Glad you pointed them out as I hadn’t spotted them, which is how it is intended, of course, to hide from predators. Lovely photo.

Great shot. They do blend in really well.
