| It was a dark, damp, and drizzly day Tuesday when we ate lunch by the lake, but I was able to capture a couple shots of a small flock of Coots paddling around in the water. I think migration has begun as I don't see these guys around here in the summer. Have a wonderful day, and click on http://paying-ready-attention-gallery.blogspot.com to see lots more wild birds. A big thank you to Stewart for hosting this fun meme too!! |

I always see Coots when the weather is getting colder .... do you see them all year round?
i think coots are cute. have never seen them in person.
Great photos. The birds are interesting and the photos really capture the feel of a rainy day.
coots ~ what a hoot ... they're kind of a funny looking duck
Coots are such strange looking birds, but I enjoy seeing them. Of course, I enjoy seeing any bird :-)
I wonder are these the same coots we get downunder in Australia??
Ounce for ounce I think these must be some of the most bad tempered birds in the world! I used to watch them as a kid - they would run half way around a large lake just to pick a fight with another coot!
Nice pictures.
Cheers and thanks for linking to WBW - cheers Stewart M - Australia
Very nice! I recognize them, we have them here in Sweden too!
Greetings Pia
Serene grouping of birds.
