Description

The coots truly are fierce figthers when it's about territory or females. first one starts threatening. It raises it wings to make himself look larger.. when it doesn't work he starts running towards it oponent. When he raises his wings as well in stead of running this is the result. With their claws they try to hit the others and this often goes till bleeding because ot the shar nails. I've also seen it different.. when the attacker starts running the attacked one dives under at the last moment to come up somewhere else... quite interesting to see.

WOW !!! Truly impressive work here, outstanding detail in these captures despite all the movement !! Yeah, these coots are really something, they can be quite agressive, also towards other waterbirds... seen it and made me laugh on many occasions :o) Superb work !! :o))
