Description
This is an American Coot running on water as it tries 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.

I love their feet. They are even cuter on the babies. Fabulous and beautiful capture.

I love this!!! How long did it take this bird to get off the ground...or water? Doesn't really look like it's built for flight. Mud Hens?? Too me back to MASH...Klinger's favorite baseball team...the Cleveland Mud Hens.... Great capture, Shoal!!
Shoal Hollingsworth replied:
Thank you Sharon. They are not good flyers at all and in fact rarely get more than a few feet off the water. Yes, MASH was a favorite of mine
