The Leader of the Band

I hadn't seen coots before on the river here so I'm guessing these were passing through. I counted 62 of them in this group just floating around on the river.

Cool image

Coots are such neat looking birds! Must have been great to see 62 in a group. I like the feeling of motion in this photo.

[Lois]

Cool red eyes!

Nice capture.

[Jane Pittenger]

We have so many of them here that I think of them almost like sea gulls

[Gayle]

Nice capture! Must have been amazing to see so many in one location like that. :-)

Ohh almost eerie bird.

[Connie Little]

Wonderful capture. Would have been great to see so many of them.
