hot chicks

Yesterday was the traditional "Route 1" kind of route with a daft diversion to look at the remote controlled aeroplane shop on the industrial estate, a place I always find fascinating for the great big flying machines - so fascinating I got strange looks from the woman working in the place as she saw my sweaty face pressed up against the glass.

Wildlife stuff - well the pair of Great Crested Grebes were out on london road lake with a chick in tow, and I think also a tufted duck chick was there too.

The really cute ones, of course, are the moorhen and coot chicks with their comedy big feet. But they aren't about yet, and no Mallard chicks around either.

Today, in the little reserve created by the council, two drakes and a duck were circling around the dinky little pond that there is in there. It's a very overgrown and dark little spot, might be quite creepy at night that little place!
