  1. I've always wondered... what is a coot and what does its hoot sound like?

  2. A coot is a water bird. As far as I'm aware it doesn't hoot, except for rhyming purposes. A British birds website will have a record of the noises it makes if you are really curious.http://www.garden-birds.co.uk/birds/coot.htm
