The Bird that walks on water or appears to. Because of this it is often referred to as the Jesus Bird. It actually walks on lilly pads or floating plantlife on the waters surface.

  • Thank you Dgti-art, yes these are beautiful birds. They walk on the lily leaves and it looks like they are walking on water. They also call them the Jesus Bird because of this.
