A pair of coots, some moorhens, a little grebe and a single Little Egret rounded out the waterbirds. |
Ducks, coots, teals, terns, gulls, cormorants, waders, egrets, plovers and herons are some of the birds that assemble here. |
And the Airport Marsh harbored a multitude of ducks, coots, egrets, herons, and rails. |
Apart from coots and related rails, only ostriches and weaverbirds can detect parasitic eggs left by their own species. |
We see two American coots, which are black, white-billed rails that behave very similarly to ducks. |
The water came right up to the walkway, and a few Ring-billed Gulls knifed into the wind, sailing over dozens of ducks and coots. |
