Aww hes the ugly duckling. I hjave never seen one of them, they sure are odd looking.

That is butt ugly ... perhaps it's intended that nothing would want to eat such a hideous critter. Nice shots, Alan - particularly the first, motherly one.

haha wow that's an ugly ducking. The bokeh in #2 is kinda strange... what lens were you shooting with?

[herderdog]

I'd have to agree--looks really unappetizing. Looks like the parent loves it though.

[RJSorensen]

I am sure this is a defense strategy for coots, so ugly nothing will eat them. Nice shots however . . .

Yeah some times the "Bokeh" comes out like that ?.It might be the kind of background the cam has to sort out ?.

Anyway its the EF 100-400 IS L.

Here in Louisiana we call them Poul-doo. And we eat them. (Adults that is) But then again you know a cajun will eat anything that wont eat him first. :lol:
