AJP spotted this Pheasant-tailed Jacana (Hydrophasianus chirurgas) at Nam Sang Wai two weeks ago, his third ever. It is classed as an uncommon migrant and rare winter visitor. This is in non-breeding plumage, a time of year when the long pheasant-type tail is absent. The only migratory jacana they occur from Yemen in the west to the Philippines in the east.
