he's nice looking, I'm sure he'll find a lover soon!! great photo, Delia, top class, many tfs!!!

I'm in Jordan for a few days right now (for work, no time for birdwatching unfortunately), temperatures are ok here. Unfortunately, yesterday evening there has been a very violent storm in the Grenoble area, my wife informed me that we have some damage on the house (broken windows) and the garden is apparently a disaster, and on top of that it's still hot. The climate's definitely going crazy!
 
I agree with JJ. Such a handsome coot should find a partner soon ... if one isn't already hiding in the reeds waiting ;)
 
Does look a bit forlorn, Delia. Maybe he wants to remain a bachelor. ;)

Beautifully captured!

He's a handsome looking Coot. Maybe he's just alone because he needs a time out (lol). Lovely picture D! TFS!
