Moorhen by the Pond - British Wildlife Photo

Moorhen by the Pond captures the distinctive colours and character of one of Britain’s most familiar water birds. This photo shows a Moorhen strolling gracefully along the edge of a pond, its vivid red beak and yellow webbed feet standing out against its dark plumage.

This wildlife photo highlights the beauty often overlooked in everyday countryside scenes. Moorhens are a common yet fascinating part of British waterways, known for their curious nature and striking appearance. Moorhen by the Pond forms part of my wildlife photography series celebrating the rich variety of birds that inhabit the lakes, ponds, and canals across Buckinghamshire and beyond.
