Part of nature watch is watching all the wildlife around. 

As I live by the river moorhen is the common water bird I can see by the water edge. 

My observation of the bird is on my blog: ninstravelog

Young moohen has different colour, they are greyish with tint of red and yellow bill

Baby moorhen, very young with fluffy feather, and red beek

I call them by name as "Mo", you can interpret is as short from Mohammed if its a male or Maureen if its a female.
