The Anhinga is a pretty amazing bird. Wonderful stills and videos!
ReplyDeleteI love the shot of the bird drying its wings.
ReplyDeleteThe Anhinga photos are amazing- incredible shots. I can picture the Anhinga expanding its jaws but don't understand how it makes the fish go down, perhaps the scales facing backward keep it from backing up? I haven't seen them, just comorants.
