‘sup?
This morning.
Blessington Street Park (The Basin), Phibsborough, Dublin 7.
A filthy, thieving pigeon gets too close to an Eurasian Coot and its egg-filled nest.
That’ll learn the pigeon.
Probably not.
Meanwhile…
This morning.
A Cormorant preens itself ahead of fishing in Blessington Street Park.
Lovely plumage, in fairness.

Just like a certain swan of a few days ago, parents get very protective when nesting and fledging. And with mama and papa coot to hand, and potential scavenger beware!
I am curious as to the purpose of the plastic ‘wickerwork’ netting. I am not familiar with the park: is it to create a barrier for floating rubbish, or make artificial pools for fish, or something else entirely? Genuinely curious.
