As strange as the Willie Wagtail doing same. Waqtched hundreds and hundreds of Jacanas and never ever seen this. Must have been a very hungry chappy !! You caught the action very well

Assume so and not scabies or some dreaded disease? Thanks Richard, I'm not quite sure about the bird's condition but as I watched, I got the impression it was a young 'un so maybe growing into its coat?

Id almost forgotten how sharp the 100-400 Mk2 can be as its been gathering dust for a few months now and I only took it out today because of a forecast of heavy rain and as I was on a bike it would be easier to carry and protect from the elements as opposed to my 600mm f4. And I had also forgotten how damn versatile this lens is so think its now going to stay out and handy as opposed to stuck in a closet .

Cheers Dennis Yes, Dennis! That's the name I know them under. Maybe the banana benders from up north renamed them Living in a beautiful part of the world!
