CommentI was looking for calm water & reflection opportunities but what I saw this morning was a series of spats involving several coots. At some stages they were fighting underwater, some times pushing each other on the chest, with a cacophony of screeches accompanying the action. The photos are not very sharp, but I hope they are as interesting to others as they are to me.
