Edit, lmao:

The wattled jacana (Jacana jacana) belongs to clade Scolopaci, and its karyotype has not been reported yet. It is an interesting species with a polyandrous mating system, in which a single female defends a harem of up to four males by aggressively excluding other females from their territory; males provide nearly all parental care (Osborne et al., 1977; Emlen and Wrege, 2004).

Only in the day time, like most birbs. Otherwise they're "sleep".

Years down the line I will wonder why I saved this comment but I hope it will still make me giggle like an idiot then too.
