Have fixed that now.<br /><br />The Herring Gulls can swoop any time they like. I'm surprised that they don't grab all the chicks immediately. There were half a dozen of them when I was there.<br /><br />Those grebe chicks are going to need feeding for another two months.

Their parent is attentive, but they are so exposed constantly. There might have been a carnage had a Gull tried its luck when they were trying to get out of the water.<br /><br />Oh my, the Grebe chicks are getting so large that they can hardly climb on top of their parents' back!
