    African Jacana

    The African Jacana is known colloquially as the 'Jesus Bird' for it's apparent ability to walk on water...

    Although we saw plenty, invariably they were buried amongst the 'mess' of water-lily beds; and this was the only 'clean' shot I got with a nice complimentary background... Unfortunately I also chopped the reflection, but I think I've got away with it ??? No doubt y'all correct me accordingly



    5D3 : Sig 150-600 @ 600 : ISO1250 : f/7.1 : 1/1000
    Cheers;
    Lee

        Stunning shot. As you've lost some of the reflection I may have cropped a bit more off the bottom to eliminate all the reflection.
