I photographed* this coot at Lost Lagoon in Stanley Park (Vancouver, B.C.) this spring BRXT (Before my Rebel XT). The beak is a little blown out but I'm still pleased with the overall shot.

* Canon AE-1 and Canon 70-200 F4

Good one..

I've taken lots of coot shots and I've determined that the coot's beak is the HARDEST thing in the world to expose correctly

Nice Job Stephen!

I'll second Jim_T's comments on the beak. Due to the extreme black and white of the bird, it makes this species quite a challenge to expose properly.

Nicely done.
