the story: Well, the title says it all. When I was walking around the university lake taking close-ups of various colourful ducks and geese, I saw this coot. It wasn't the bird that attracted me but two bright-coloured tags around both its legs. Its not unusual to see birds in the university lake tagged, you usually notice bland white tags with numbers, but these were really eye-catching, and hence the picture here :)
However, I thought a high-contrast B&W version of this image looked good too, so a bigger version but in B&W HERE.
