That’ll be the place

After each swim in the water, after each walk on the land, this coot came always back to this same place.
I guess this will be the place where the nest will be built (april).

Dutch name : Meerkoet
German name : Blässhuhn
Latin name : Fulica atra

(This is my last upload for now as I’m leaving tomorrow for a few days. Hope to see you all safe and sound within a week or so)

    great detail and posture!
    without doubt, this is an adult-Fulica atra-you got one in a special moment when the bank withdraws...
    at my bird, missing white spot on the head and not so black plumage;
    you think may be a juvenile?
    best regards
