In my part of the world we have a saying, "You know it's cold when the coot stands alone"
or that would be the rough translation in English :)
Thus this solitary freezing cold coot standing in the snowy banks along this frigid winter canal is testament to the harsh winter climate that we must endure here in the frozen wastelands of Belgium.
