American Coot at Governor Bridge Posted on June 16, 2015 by Hugh The Summer doldrums are beginning. It was already warm and humid when I arrived at Governor Bridge, and the birds weren’t cooperating at all. After I found the coot, I switched to bugs for a short while, then retreated from the heat and humidity. I heard several birds, but only this American Coot braved the heat. Today’s bugs. I almost overlooked this little slug. Share this:FacebookEmailPrint
