Eurasian Coot in the sun
First time I can remember seeing one of these, not sure I got any particularly good pictures of them though, this is the only one with any focus. Shot with a Sony A7R2 on a Canon 70-300 DO IS@ 300mm, 1/800, f10, ISO 800 in Buckinghamshire, UK during April 2026.

Oh wow. That head shield is so unique. What an interesting bird. I can't think of anything similar near me. Good stuff!
