Jacana Nest

We noticed and photographed this Jacan distraction display on Sunday at Lake Gregory. We assumed we were close to a nest and paddled toward where we thought it was for a quick look when I looked down and saw it only a few feet from the boat. Needles to say we took a couple of very quick shots and left them alone.

Fantastic shots Trev. Aren't they a beautiful creature? With the eggs out in the open like that are they open to many predators?

Great post thank you

OMG Trev wow...... brilliant shots.... look at thier feet... amazing looking birds. thanks so much for sharing.Excellent.
Lake Gregory is?.... and were you in a canoe or fishing in a boat or boating for the purpose of birdspotting?

Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best

Thanks All. Lake gregory is near the elliott river off the isis highway near bundaberg. It's a holding dam for the irrigation system. Yep I was in a boat with no fishing gear. Since then I have addapted my hide to sit in the boat so if I can sneek off without my wife so there is only one in the hide I am hoping to get closer so I can get better shots.

See Yez
