Aquatic Birds

Four Little Heads

Mama decided I was of no interest and ignored me but the babies were curious and wanted to get a look. I can count 4 little heads that popped up. There are two sets of eyes to the left of mama. On the right are two more heads but only one shows the eyes. That nest is getting crowded.
