"The American coot is a migratory bird that occupies most of North America. They have broad, lobed scales on their lower legs and toes that fold back with each step in order to facilitate walking on dry land. "

What Is Seldom Seen Species Sunday:
Seldom Seen Species Sunday is art challenge/project where on Sundays I'll post artwork featuring an animal that is rarely or never seen in media with a little bit of info taken from the web. This includes prehistoric creatures, extinct creatures and even commonly seen creatures with uncommonly seen color mutations.

Note: I'm not taking suggestions. If you want to take part in this art challenge. Feel free to do so! I encourage it! However, don't feel pressured to upload EVERY Sunday. I want this whole thing to be lax and fun above anything else.
