This Group of Coots is Quite a Hoot!

1/1000s @ f/13, ISO 1000, Nikkor 500mm f/4 @ 700mm. (Animals)
Taken at the Celery Bog a few weeks ago. The waterborne American Coot is one good reminder that not everthing that floats is a duck, although they often mix with them. In fact they are closer relatives of the Sandhill Crane than of Mallards or teal (Cornell Lab of Ornithology). Saw one baby Coot, but unfortunately could not get a clear shot of him.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
