Northern Jacana (Jacana spinosa), Dave White Municipal Golf Course, Pinal County

This adult Northern Jacana is presumably the same individual that was present at this location for most of last winter.  It was first seen this fall by Kurt Radmaker and and Josh Watson on 08 November 2008.  It was photographed by Josh Watson on 08 November 2008 and by Bryan Holliday on 12 November 2008. 

Photos of the bird from last year are here. This is the second Northern Jacana reported this fall.  The earlier one in Patagonia is here.
