This is a busy frame to look at. The two coots are well seen but are almost obscured by the leaves and other material floating about.

In any case the young one shouldn't worry since mom is leaving and obvious wake to follow.

Creative diagonal framing, sets a nice tone and easy to look at.

Nice piece of interpretive shooting ... Bob

The scene is very busy, and I had to look closely to see the baby. I like the title and how the scene plays out to support the theme. The crop works and lighting is adequate. I might have lightened the landscape to allow the birds to pop a bit.

Another storytelling lovely shot of the birds. This demonstrates how one can find beauty even in some unattractive things in this world. Thanks for sharing@

Aha and there's mom, I knew she had to be around somewhere! Lol
Nice capture. The autumn leaves strew across the water add colour to the photo and the composition with the 2 crossing diagonally works well.

Fred,
A beautiful picture of the Coot with her Chick follows her as they swim through the lake, it's surface covered in fallen leaves & pond weed. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

A good looking nature image posted here! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of the ducks on that messy autumn lake. Colours, textures and tones are good. Nicely taken!

Witty title, that seems to match. Lovely blues in the Eurasian Coots. These are new to me but you captured the front one (Mom?) closely. I see the story left a lot of leaves, other floating, lying around,
