Poor thing! But looks to be surviving on one foot quite well. A lovely image with great color and detail. V.

These are so eye-catching. Our NZ coots are from Australia = apparently NZ's two endemic coots are now extinct

He's very pretty. He seems to be doing okay with one foot in this photo. Which is quite lovely. V.

Poor birdie! He must have a hard life standing on one foot while trying to make his living. Bright , red eye makes a great image. V
