Aquatic Father Fathers Guarding Jacana Jacanas Protecting Sri Lanka Waders Water Plants At Nest Lotus Bird Pheasant Tailed Trotter Trotters


EDITORS COMMENTS
Father of the Year: This Pheasant-tailed Jacana takes multitasking to a whole new level as he guards his precious nest in Sri Lanka's tranquil waters. Known as the Lotus Bird or Lily Trotter, this dapper dad is not afraid to get his feet wet while protecting his future brood. With its vibrant plumage and elegant stride, this tropical wader stands out among the water plants, showcasing its parenting prowess. The male Pheasant-tailed Jacana takes on the responsibility of incubating the eggs and caring for the chicks once they hatch, proving that dads can be just as nurturing as moms! Caught in action by wildlife photographer Joanna Van Gruisen, this snapshot captures both strength and tenderness. It serves as a reminder that nature never ceases to amaze us with its incredible creatures and their unique behaviors. So next time you're feeling overwhelmed by your own parental duties, take inspiration from this dedicated avian father. Remember that even in challenging times, love knows no bounds – whether you're guarding a nest or simply trying to keep up with life's daily demands.
