Black-winged Stilt Reflecting Oil

While in the Chewore South territory in northern Zimbabwe in late June 2022, I spent a couple of days enjoying some R & R on the Zambezi River. One early morning, this black-winged stilt appeared in the shallows. I was standing on the raised bank almost directly overhead, which made for an ideal vantage point. At first glance, its wings appear a dense black, but they catch the light with a beautiful blue-green sheen. Its long pink legs seem slightly incongruous, adding a quirky elegance to its appearance.
