    Hi,

    I've been to the Zoo yesterday and while there is a description for most animals, some others remain unknown ;)

    Can anyone help me and identify this bird:

    The feet look like those of a chicken but that doesn't help me at the moment. I feel a bit stupid because nobody else seemed to be very surprised about the bird, so it seems to be quite common sight.

    Thanks for any help.

    (not to be confused with a coot)

    Thank you so much! What a coot looks like I knew but this was totally new to me. Now I can name my pic on flickr. Thanks for the quick help!
