Description
An American coot in Ohio's CVNP Beaver Marsh takes a little sample of some of the marsh plants floating at the top around a floating log. Plants make up the bulk of his diet and this is a good appetizer!
Although they appear, at first glance, to be a kind of duck they are actually in the rail family. They swim thanks to lobed toes, rather than webbed toes like ducks and geese. And here you can see their striking red eyes.
