EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by FLPA/Dickie Duckett, an adult African Jacana confidently struts across a series of waterlily pads as if it's just another day at the office. With its long legs and delicate feet, this tropical bird effortlessly glides through the wetlands of southern Africa. The Okavango Delta serves as the perfect playground for these incredible creatures. As they gracefully navigate their way through the swampy waters, their vibrant feathers glisten under the warm African sun. With each step on these floating botanical platforms, our feathered friend defies gravity and leaves us in awe of nature's wonders. It seems like walking on water is not reserved solely for biblical figures! As we marvel at this extraordinary sight, let us take a moment to appreciate how diverse and adaptable wildlife can be. From lush riverbanks to freshwater deltas, African Jacanas remind us that life finds a way even in seemingly inhospitable environments. So next time you find yourself needing transportation across a marsh or wetland area, remember: all you need are some trusty lily pads and your very own "Jacana trotters"!
