No you are too small, and you have a strange white patch on your head.
I need to stop messing about on this iPad, grab my camera, leave this hotel room, and get outside to take a few photographs. Bye for now. . . .

Another cracking shot! I guess you are on holiday?
A couple of days in Oxfordshire.
Ahh! A Eurasian Coot by the looks of it. They’re one of the main birds I capture on the nearby lake at the moment. When I first saw one 2 years ago, I thought it was some rare bird. Now I know they’re very common. Isn’t it strange how having a camera in your hand when you go walking increases your observations powers. I walked around the lake for nearly 30 years but never noticed these coots before.
The coot is a bland bird. I find them difficult to photograph sometimes.
My camera opens a door in my brain, letting in all sorts of visual delights and emotions.
Ha! Love the coots.Goofy birds and you would not expect them to have the huge lobed feet that they do.
The coot is capable of moving very quickly, Phil; no doubt aided by their large feet. 🙂
