hi all
A friend of mine has a chick - Any guesses?
black webbed feet, medium long legs.
160grams, primary feathers partially grown, brown (with some red tint) on
top (with a darker cap), underneath light buff/white, still somewhat downy.
Yellow eyes with dark pupil, medium-short length straight stabbing beak.
beak is black with white tip. NO face plate but yellow marking to rear of
beak and under eyes (a bit like Aus Grebe in breeding pattern)
bird was picked up in Sydney Park, caught up in green nylon that comes
underneath turf.
thanks
storm
