Does anyone else ever wonder about this? A baby eagle is an eaglet, a baby owl is an owlet,and yet we don't call them "ducklets" or "chicklets". A gosling, but not a pealing or quailing. Or quailet. Or pealet. Or goslet!
Personally, I think it'd be adorable if we just lumped all baby birds into one of those two categories, either 'lings or 'lets! Crowling! Heronling! Hawklet! ! SPARROWLET!
