Picture No. 11071424 captures this beautiful bird feeding on crab prey at the edge of the water, showcasing its hunting prowess.

Standing amidst shallow waters or muddy swamps, this bird finds solace and sustenance while adding beauty to these serene landscapes. Its presence is truly captivating as it stands tall against picturesque backdrops in Keoladeo Ghana National Park and Bharatpur Rajasthan.
