Photo Hunt Contest #11 -Birds: meet Jacana

in #photoquesthunt6 years ago (edited)

Great contest choice! And my entry was taken while doing a canoe tour in Tortuguero, a National Park in Costa Rica. If it weren't for the guide's keen eye, this cutie could go unnoticed!

Northern Jacana / Jacana (PT) - Jacana spinosa

Jacanas are found on wetlands, and their feet are adapted to walk on floating vegetation, while they search for food. Not that with these bright colors, that make them easy to identify, they can blend in with the green... but it is hard to spot them among all the vegetation. As with most bird observations, a little bit of patience, experienced eyes, and a little bit of luck help a lot! :)

Already done! Thank you!

What a beautiful photo @pardinus! Thank you for sharing a little information about this bird too; it's one I'd never heard about before :)

I found your post because @lady-idra featured you in an entry to our Pay it Forward contest. You are more than welcome to join us next week with an entry of your own :)

Thank you for the visit! We are surrounded by tons of species that normally go unnoticed, even in the cities... in this case I was actively looking for wildlife ;) I liked the concept of this contest so much that made an entry too this week, and won't be the last!

I saw that @pardinus! You move quickly! Thank you on behalf of all of us at @pifc 😅

My pleasure! You are the only ones that deserve a big thank you!

Hi @pardinus as you know @lady-idra featured you for week 19 for @pifc contest.

Wonderful picture. You patience definitely paid off.

Thanks for the feedback! @lady-idra was the reason I found out the contest existed!
