This amazing bird lives on the lotus leaves in wetlands and billabongs. What a beautiful creature.

This was taken at a billabong just outside of Kakadu National Park NT Australia.

    Wonderful capture, love that red hat!

  • Thanks Gabrielle! It was so special to see this bird. I just wish I could have seen the babies when they hatched too.

    Oh My!! She looks like a lady going out on the town with her beautiful black dress and fancy red hat! This is such a awesome capture and very neat bird! I have never seen one before:)

  • Thanks so much Rose. Yes she was happy for us to spend a bit of time checking out her nest but she started to complain when she had enough. They are an amazing bird! : )
