Once I caught sight of the unusual feet of this American Coot I couldn't stop laughing, but I must say it did add a bit to their appeal. I had to check out their 'feet facts': Although a coot swims like a duck, the American Coot does not have webbed feet like a duck. Instead of having all the toes connected by webs, each coot toe has lobes on the sides of each segment and push against the water to aid in swimming.
