I like American Coots. Especially when I happen to catch a group of them as they splash into the water.

Entre les feuilles flottantes et les reflets tremblants, la Foulque avance, indifférente au tumulte du monde. Il y a dans son calme une leçon de lenteur, une invitation à observer sans brusquer.
