I can't remember what kind of bird this is, but it's face looked like a clown to me. It's at the Rainforest at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.

Thanks for the comments, friends.

Scared me there for a second with the title. Hate clowns...scary.

A great and crisp shot of the bird.

Reminds me of type of Jacana. Very nice pose, details and background. Nice details on the eye.

I also think it is a kind of Jacana Jimbob. I have been working on one today but it is of a different colour. Nice and colourful bird, very good capture.

He looks so sad Jim, or is that wary? Great post nevertheless.

That's quite a beak on this one - like the lighting very much - it brought out his dark colors.
