| A limpkin (Aramus guarauna) stands in shallow water in Texas, holding an apple snail (Pomacea spp.) in its beak. The bird has brown plumage speckled with white, and slender legs adapted for wading. Grasses and reeds surround the water's edge, indicating a wetland habitat. The limpkin is known for its unique diet, primarily consisting of these snails, with a specialized beak for extracting them from their shells. The scene captures a moment of natural foraging behavior in a typical environment. |
