Wohlibuli,

Thanks so much for the information. I've seen these American Coots for years and never knew what they were.

Surprized you haven't gotten any sarcastic remarks! Something along the lines of "Do these coots sit on porchs and yell at kids?" Is coot a slang term out west like it is here. Along the same lines as "geezer" : )

Wohlibuli:

Yes, it has the same meaning. Maybe it was named after an Old American Coot? LOL!!!
