Come spring, nature explodes joyously into a celebration of new life and the end of harsh winter months.
Except coots. They explode into life and attempt to peck the crap out of each other. These feisty little birds are some of the most aggressively territorial on the waters of Britain. They're supremely intolerant. Ducks, geese, swans and especially other coots- they don't care. They'll get stuck in with beak and claw and take no prisoners, bless 'em. It's really quite sweet to watch.
