Description
I came upon three of these chicks on an old logging road at the edge of a tiny pool of water that I think was dammed up by a beaver. One scooted off ...couldn't fly, but quickly swam to the far bank of the tiny pool. The other two stayed close to the near shore and allowed me to photograph them ... figuring, I guess, that they were well camouflaged. And they would have been ... if their sister/brother hadn't given away their position with its movement.
