Great sighting and bird. I also picked this bird up as a lifer in Costa Rica.
SvaraRaderaInteresting capture. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
SvaraRaderaA fasinating bird. Those toes are amazing to see. Thanks for sharing.
SvaraRaderaGreat color..it reminds me of a moorhen--HUGE toes...reminds me of a Spider with LONG legs--
SvaraRaderaAn unusual looking bird and certainly not one I have seen.
SvaraRaderaGreat photo of the Jacana. The Jacana we have out here uses those wonderful long toes to run around on top of lily pads.
SvaraRaderaI thought you would like this cool bird. :)
SvaraRaderaLook at those toes,oh my!
SvaraRaderaViva Costa Rica!
SvaraRaderaIn the jungles of old Costa Rica
Where they spice up their food with paprika
Whether fowl or swine
the taste is divine
like the kiss of a young Senorita!
