  11. Coots are a pretty bird -- when we lived on the lake it was fun seeing rafts of them float by. These are lovely portraits. Over here anyway, "Old Coot" is kind of a put-down term for, usually, old men who are too set in their ways. I've always thought the bird was too pretty to be maligned in this way! (I like old men, I'm married to one, but he is willing to try new things and think about things in new ways, so he is definitely not an old coot! ;>)))
