After birding "Carmen's yard" late in the afternoon on December 28, 2009, we drove to Ammo Dump Ponds. We photographed the Wattled Jacana on the other side of a fence surrounding a restricted area. The bill of this species is yellow with a two-lobed frontal shield and short wattles on each side of the bill that can vary in color from dull red to purplish-red. Temperatures were in the upper 70's on this cloudy afternoon with intermittent rain.
