It’s a baby Jacana. They use those ridiculous stick-figur toes to evenly distribute their weight as  they walk around on waterlillies and stuff. Like snowshoes, but for swamps.

Another really interesting thing about Jacanas is that it’s the dad who does all the child rearing while mom goes off to lay more eggs. Amd their really good dads too! Plus look at how they Cary their babies around!:
