Eurasian Coot Pictures and Detail (A Bird which can walk on the water)
Eurasian Coot Pictures and Detail -
Today, I will discuss another water-oriented bird Eurasian Coot with you. The scientific name of this bird is Fulica atra. Earlier, I have covered three water birds Spotted-billed duck, Ruddy Shelduck, and Eurasian Common Moorhen. Waterbirds are the birds which depend mainly on water resources for their food and living. Eurasian coots are also called common coots or Australian coots.


The male and female Eurasian coot birds almost look similar; however, male birds are slightly bigger than the female birds. They are black colored birds. It is common to spot these birds on the common water bodies like lakes, rivers, reservoirs, marshes, etc. We can even attract them by feeding them.
These birds make small dives in the water to get food out of water. The size of these birds 36-42 cm long and they weigh around 700 gm to 900 gm.
