Me: "Oh look a Common Gallinule!"
The Gallinule: "Common! I think not!"

Today was the first time I ever saw a Marsh Hen in the small lake at the park next to the Barcelona Zoo. I see them at the Besos River but they're always so far away that I can't get a good photo of them. #marshhen #birds #barcelona #park #photography

Is that a moorhen/marshhen? Even the adults have outsized feet. I'm always amazed by how well they swim without webbing.
