Adorable Chicks

I stumbled across this adorable purple swamphen chick. His mother deserted him at my approach and he was terrified of me and my camera. He hopped from lily to lily and tried to hide by the edge of the pond. I eventually got him and after I left his mother returned to him and his sibling. Sorry little chicky but you were too adorable to resist 🙂
