Had to lean out the hide window for this one (Actophilornis africanus)

I've been having a productive day at work today. Been a while since I've gotten any writing done, but now close to finishing a paper. Time to stop for today, post these 3 images (all of them lifers that day), then hike home, make dinner, and catch up browsing after that. Here's another shot of the Jacana. He walked right up to the hide, so close that I had to lean out the window to get his feet in this shot.
