Hamerkop with outstretched wings after takeoff
Hamerkop (Scopus umbretta) with outstretched wings after taking off from a pool of water formed by the receding floodwaters in Okavango Delta. The wader pushes its wings forward as if cupping the air to change the angle of attack and produce lift. Captured in the Jao Flats, Okavango Delta, Botswana.
