Description
Under the watchful eye of a parent, these Purple Swamphen chicks are taking their first steps out of the nest into a strange and exciting new world.
The purple swamphen (Porphyrio porphyrio) is a waterbird found along the eastern coast of Australia. Outlying populations can also be found in New Zealand where they are known as Pukeko. They are roughly the same size as a domestic chicken.
