    Bravo! Beautiful pictures!
    They used to land on our stretch of river during migration, haven’t seen them for a few years. Handsome, handsome.

      Thank you, Jain! I’m glad you like the photos.

      I wonder why they don’t visit your area now… Interesting. Coots live here all year and I can’t imagine a time without them, so I’m curious about what made them stop visiting your stretch of the river. Hopefully it’s nothing stranger than a more favorable spot nearby along their migration path. I do hope they visit you again soon!
