If I remember correctly they were only about 2 weeks old when I took this picture. Arriving at Gruinart to visit the RSPB bird hide I was asked to wait a few minutes as they were just herding some cattle from one field to another. Which I happily did, it also gave me the opportunity to take a few pictures.
