    it's because I have eaten coot. Coot is totally inedible. The fat on coots is green. Nasty stuff, coot... And yet, there is a federally mandated season and limit on them...

    Ahh, but coot feathers look almost exactly like a baby blue-eared pheasant... and I hear that the gizzards make good gumbo...
