Confirmation of what type of wetlands bird please?

No idea what type of bird but the red legs stick out like anything.

Can't help with the ID, but it's a beautiful bird and a great shot. :)

Looks like a great shot of a black winged stilt, a local in your neck of the woods.

Looks like the Garbored Saber-Toothed Death Bill. Dangerous birds.

No, wait.... The legs are the wrong color. I don't know what it is, but it's a great shot. Love the reflection.

It's upside down, NO, wait-a-minute.........it's just me. Well shot.

I believe Jakes right, not to be confused with the Blank-necked Stilt we have.
