Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

I don't think I've seen a Coot out of water - look at the size of those feet. It was standing on a partially-submerged park bench, as the Main River was overflowing in Frankfurt.
