It was a stand-off for a while until the woodpecker tired of the parakeet trespassing on his peanut butter tree.
This black heron has adapted to a very unique feeding behaviour making use of its wings to form a canopy, its flight feathers are particularly broad and shaped to help form the closed canopy. The erected nape plumes also help complete the canopy. Its distinctively coloured feet are similar to other herons/egrets, but interestingly, unlike many other species, the black heron’s legs do not change colour in the breeding season, suggesting that dark legs are important in the functioning of the canopy behaviour. The ability of the species to adequately catch fish in shallow open water using its unique shadow-casting behaviour is just short of amazing.
Although it’s not perfectly clear why the black heron uses this specific technique, scientists hypothesize that it has several advantages, like reducing glare and attracting the fish into a trap with the fish falsely believing its a safe place to hide in the shade. And because the shade gives the bird a better view of its victim, it can easily snatch it out of the water with its long beak. The black heron is definitely one of the sneakiest predators in the animal realm.
Watching with amazement and wondering how he or she can do the same is the glossy ibis.
This lagoon was always a hive of activity while we were at this camp, so many species of birds at all times to entertain between safari outings.

This mallard carried this dead frog and dropped it near the waters edge.
After a little research it seems Mallards do eat frogs with females hunting them and the drakes often stealing there catch, the meat helps sustain them during nesting.

i like the feet detail visible in this shot
Over-sized Juvenile feet still appear chicken-like - while parent bird shows fully developed lobed features

They are also known as Cobra Chickens, Viper Chickens or of course as their name many know them by - Canada Geese. They are nasty with one another especially if they try to invade the space of others.
