Being a fire Demon, Buwaro's not a big fan of large quantities of water. But with the help of his friends, he can learn to manage his fears! === These characters are from my webcomic, Slightly Damned: http://sdamned.com I make sketches for based on patron ideas for my backers on Patreon: http://patreon.com/raizap My Twitter: http://twitter.com/sdamned

This took them an hour's scrambling and wading and while that was going on nobody had any breath to talk.

I’m just going to keep pretending to be okay. I’ll keep pretending to swim, when really all I’m doing is floating. Barely keeping my head above water.

You couldn't see whether he had feet or roots, of course, because when trees move they don't walk on the surface of the earth; they wade in it as we do in water.

The northern jacana, also known as the American jacana and the Jesus Bird, is a species of wading bird in the family Jacanidae which in native throughout Panama, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama, Jamaica, Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Arizona, Florida, and Texas. They are famous for their huge feet and claws, which enable them to walk on floating vegetation in the shallow lakes, swamps, marshes, and ponds that are their preferred habitat. Here they feed upon insects, snails, worms, crustaceans, fish, mollusks, and seeds. Jacana are themselves preyed upon by snakes, crocodilians, snapping turtles, and various large birds mammals. Both sexes of northern jacana average around 8 inches (240mm) in length with a 20 inch (508mm) wingspan, however females are nearly twice as heavy at 5- 6oz (140- 170g) in weight compared to males at 3-4oz (85- 113g). The northern jacana has a dark brown body with a black head and neck. Its bill has a white base with yellow patches and its forehead has a yellow wattle. The legs and feet are a greenish grey. When a jacana is in flight, its yellowish-green primary and secondary feathers are visible. Also visible are yellow bony spurs on the leading edge of the wings, which it can use to defend itself and its young.  Particularly unusual among birds, this species sports a polyandrous society in which female jacana maintain harems of males. Said females compete with each other through elaborate calls, displays, and acts of physical, often aerial, aggression. The winner of these fights gets to maintain a territory where she will pair bond and mate 1-4 males. Breeding occurs in the rainy season during which time males construct floating nests out of whatever plant matter they can find. Where the female will lays a clutch of four brown eggs with black markings. Which are then incubated by the males for 28 days. After hatching they are cared for by all parents, fledge at around 8 weeks of age and become fully independent after a year.
