Description
The Eurasian Coot, Fulica atra, also known as Coot, is a member of the rail and crake bird family, the Rallidae. The Coot breeds across much of the Old World on freshwater lakes and ponds.
La Foulque macroule (Fulica atra) fait partie des Rallidae : foulques, râles et marouettes. Ils sont grégaires sur les étendues d'eau en hiver.

most delightful shot!!! looks so peaceful, despite the ice (it wasn't until the recent frost, that I realised how big their feet actually are... love the sounds they make!)

So cold yet they look comfy - Wish we could be the same...

Neat picture, very nice composition. I guess they got cold feet. They say their feet are large so they can walk on lily pads. Sort of like a snowshoe. It's amazing how birds and other animals will tolerate such weather. Your coot and ours are only different in that our coot has a ruby button on his forehead, while yours is pearl. :)

Nice one! If I was there, you could have had an 'old coot' on ice, but I would have broken through, LOL!
