Who Gives A Hoot About An Old Coot?

No one could love American Coots--they are so numerous, boring, and love to eat rotting vegetation under the water.
But the camera sees a different side to them. They are photogenic and even a bit fun, close up.

At soon to be 90 I guess Im one of the old coots.
For some people, Hal, it starts way before 90! Congrats to you! For the 90 part, not the coot.

You did a great job on these old Coots! I find it difficult to get to exposure right with the very black bird and the white beak. These are perfect.

Katy, this old coot thinks your coot shots are cute. Sorry about that, but I’m having an attack of the sillies!

Very handsome birds with the white beaks and red eyes against the black plumage.

Mike, glad you liked them. Without a camera lens, it would be difficult to "call a Coot cute"! I think we have a tongue twister there.
