The American coot (Fulica americana)

Comment if you know what kind of bird the black one is. My Aunt thinks its a Swedish Black Duck which was my guess. Upon further review, I believe it could be an American Coot! Coots seems to have red eyes from my research, but these beautiful birds resemble the American Coot.
The American coot (Fulica americana), also known as a mud hen or pouldeau, is a bird of the family Rallidae. Though commonly mistaken for ducks, American coots are only distantly related to ducks, belonging to a separate order. Unlike the webbed feet of ducks, coots have broad, lobed scales on their lower legs and toes that fold back with each step in order to facilitate walking on dry land. Coots live near water, typically inhabiting wetlands and open water bodies in North America. Groups of coots are called covers or rafts.The oldest known coot lived to be 22 years old.
