Description
These are American Coots running on water as they try to take off. The American coot, also known as a mud hen or pouldeau, is a bird of the family Rallidae. Though commonly mistaken for ducks, American coots belong to a separate order. Unlike the webbed feet of ducks, coots have broad, lobed scales on their lower legs and toes that fold back with each step in order to facilitate walking on dry land.

Living many years on the coast of North Carolina, and doing my share of duck hunting I was always fascinated Coots. Years later I realized that these birds depend more on 'ground effect' than the aerodynamics of true flight. At any rate thanks for sharing the interesting photograph.
