American Coot
The American Coot swims like a duck, but does not have webbed feet and are often see walking on the shore. It is dark gray with a white bill with a black ring at the tip. It typically feeds on the surface of water but will also dive under and graze on land. Look for them in ponds on Galveston’s west-end.
Compare to the Common Gallinule.
