As if to help me out with the write-up on the painted snipes, a couple of African jacanas put in an appearance, much closer to our stake-out spot. The male is visibly the smaller of the two and very much hen-pecked; I’d say more so than is the case with the painted snipes. The much more common jacana is a conspicuous resident of aquatic habitats, frequenting a variety of wetlands, from seasonal pans and floodplains and along the fringes of slow-flowing rivers to estuaries, lagoons, sewage works and even ornamental ponds where floating water plants provide it with its preferred surface cover where they spend most of their day searching for food.

The jacana’s parallel with painted snipes is confined to breeding strategy and care of chicks. Beyond that, you would be hard pressed to guess they are sister species.
