Coot , one of the commenest waterbirds , they cannot fly perfectly and cannot swim perfectly but they're very successful for breeding and wandering to whole wetlands . In Winter ; you can see tens of thousands of them in moderate lakes and wetlands .

Hello Akif,

It appears this bird is trying to out-stare you! It looks quite aggressive for such a normally timid bird!
Nice details, even to the water droplets!
A sense of movement has been captured by the tiny ripples around her body disturbing the reflection in the water.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Akif,

Away, just marking

Pekka

ÇOk ters bakıyor bu yahu:) Ama çok net ve güzel.Tüylerindeki su damlacıkları bile ayrı bir güzellik katıyor.Eline sağlık.

ne yaptın da bu kadar kızdırdın elemanı Akif:) baksana adavapuru gibi üzerine geliyor. şaka bir yana güzel çekim olmuş. eline sağlık.

Hello Akif,
lovely capture of the Coot with both its eyes pointed at you.:)
I liked the pose and expression caught here.
Excellent sharpness and details.The water drops clnging to its feathers gives it a beautiful touch.
Thanks for the share,
Smitha.
