A Eurasian coot resting on one leg in Derbyshire, England

This photo captures a Eurasian coot in the wilds of Derbyshire, a county in England. The bird, standing on one leg, has turned its head just right, so that at this angle it’s difficult to identify the coot at a glance. Eurasian coots have a natural distribution across Europe, Asia, North Africa, and even Australia.
