A clique of Coots

A clique of Coots (Fulica atra)

Again pretty distant and a big crop, but it's not often I see so many Coots together.

Although Kinnordy and Lintrathen are only a few miles apart, Lintrathen is rather deeper (well usually LOL) and, being a reservoir, doesn't have the bog bean islands and surrounding markshes. Also it is used for fishing so there's often one or two boats out.
