Tim Melling – Wattled Jacana

Mark 1 Comment

I don’t know what it is about Capybaras but many species of bird and animal use them as a perch, and they don’t seem to mind.  In fact there is Tumblr page dedicated to animals sitting on Capybaras.

This one is a Wattled Jacana, sometimes known as a Lilytrotter but maybe more appropriately Capybaratrotter.  There was a large group of Capybaras lying in the water and the Jacana hopped from one to another as if they were stepping stones.
