"And I... will always love you"

2025 - Whitney^H^H^H Conb-Crested Jacana

#Bird #AustralianWildlife #WildOz #CombCrestedJacana

An adult Comb-Crested Jacana with its head back and beak wide open like it's singing a long note. (In reality it was probably yawning). 

It is a brown bodied bird with buff and white neck, relatively small beak and a red comb. It also has relatively long legs and huge feet, but they can't be seen as it is standing on water weed which is obscuring the feet.

Small bird, HUGE feet.

A sub-adult Comb-crested Jacana I spotted this morning at work. Its comb is now almost fully formed so it's pretty close to adulthood.

A Comb-crested Jacana standing on a different rock in a lake. bent forward towards the water. Its broken reflection can be seen below.
It has a white body with brown wings, black shoulder stripe, a little buff on the sides of the neck, dark brown cap, but a red comb and shield on its face. The legs are pale yellow and the feet are about as wide as the body is long.
