Mermaidman: STOP SHOUTING I'M NAPPING!!!
Barnacleboy: IT'S NOT ME YOU OL COOT!!!
As someone who loves both birds and spongebob this is funny and I always laugh when they say "old coot" on spongebob
And here I thought coots were native to nursing homes and bingo halls...
Remember folks coots ≠ ducks.
not very well known bird, though quite common. Interesting facts, thanks.
Finally some Rail Bird.
i keep on seeing these guys at the park and i always thought they were ducks, awesome vid, thx for sharing!🥰
Have you done an Osprey video. There's a nest nearby but I don't know a lot about them.

nice. please do about chaffinches.
Didn't know they even existed
I knew the word, but I didn't know what it meant!
same just found a baby in my back yard idk wht to do with it 😂
They may look something like ducks, but they aren't a bunch of quacks!
If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck then it is......a coot!(?)
@@thegoose0m1That's a coot joke - lol!
I've always loved birds with frontal shields. It looks like they've got a broken helmet that only covers the front of their head.
1:31 this is not a coot, it's a swamp chicken.
Theres one Aircraft that had this name
Ilyushin IL-18 "Coot"
They are members of the rail crake family Rallidae. Like one of my favourite birds the Dusky Moorhen and also Australasian Swamphen also known as Pukeko. Once I overheard some random person call a dusky moorhen a weird duck and I was like omg noooo thats a moorhen not a duck lol
They shake their bully babies! Love those birds

Do coots wear coats?
Can a 🐁use a 🖱️? Can a duck get stuck in a truck? Do pigs write with a pig pen?

Comments for the algorithm
Coot =)
Very tasty
Actually, coots are not waterfowl, waterfowl are birds that belong to the order Anseriformes, coots belong to the order Gruiformes.
I think the term is used in a broader sense in the USA.
Actually, the word "waterfowl" refers exclusively to the order Anseriformes, just like the word "gamebird" refers only to the order Galliformes, interestingly gamebirds (order Galliformes) and waterfowl (order Anseriformes) are both called fowl, which are birds of the clade Galloanserae.
