Molt chronology of American Coots in winter
Article Abstract:
Moult in coots is not limited to the period surrounding the breeding season, according to research into the moult chronology of American Coots wintering in Alabama. Coots wintering at the Guntersville Reservoir were found to moult a portion of their contour feathers throughout autumn and winter. It is uncertain whether increased moult in Feb is an indication of the onset of prealternate moult, as in some dabbling duck species, extended prebasic moult or individual replacement of worn feathers.
