Well it's just an American Coot. They get in our pictures of other more impressive birds. But they need love too! You gotta love them feet.
From Merritt Island NWR on 3/3/12. Stiff wind blowing up the feathers. In this area at MINWR it is normally best to remain in the vehicle as the birds will stay closer to the berm road. HH through window on BLUBB.
