There once was a coot
So incredibly cute
With yellow and white on his bill.
Just for a hoot
Singing root anâ toot toot
He posed for a fine chap called Phil.
Boom boom, as Basil Brush would say!
Love him â¤ď¸
Beautiful capture. I like the swirling water around the coot. I did not go on the ferris wheel because I hate the idea of being stuck at the top if something went wrong with the motor that drives the structure around. Once, in Sicily with my children and a friend with his, the friend decided to go up on one, much smaller than the one in my picture , and the thing suddenly stopped when he in the top chair and he had to wait patiently until they managed to start the motor again to get him down.
Love the way the ripples flow out from this little Coot. Does Elsie get excited seeing ducks etc or does she take it all in her stride. Connie is only interested in pheasants!
@casablanca Wow Casa' that's brilliant , you are a poet and I didn't know it !!! Or is that a Limerick ? Thanks anyway for the fabulous comment ...Boom Boom ... I should call you "Mr. Derek " , as in Derek Fowlds !
@happypat Thanks Pat, Elsie is very laid back , she walks past cats , not too bothered by squirrels , sometimes chases a pigeon !!! She isn't very good when food is around , begging and trying to steal !
