 I think it's very common that many of us don't know what some of these aquatic birds' legs look like.

P.S. - I love the colorful shorts!

I have to say that those are the only spindly legs I have ever seen that are even remotely pleasing to the eye. Still...they look like something dredged up from the moors.
