Coot's foot - crazy English language!

Coot's foot - crazy English language!
We found this dead Coot near the side of one of the sloughs just to the east of the city. Many people think that a Coot is a duck. However, a Coot does not have webbed feet.

"Each toe on the foot of the coot has broad flanges, which enables the coot to swim as well as walk on soft sediments and mud without sinking." From uk.encarta.msn.com.
