Just after the Juvenile Little Blue Heron flew off I realized he wasn’t alone in the trees above me.
This Anhinga was having a look around.
These views from underneath show off how sharp the Anhinga’s bill is, perfectly shaped for the way they spear fish under water.
After I passed by I turned for another image and a look at those amazing webbed feet, which you can see better if you zoom in.
I didn’t realise they have such claws on their webbed feet!
Aren’t they amazing feet! I’ve never gotten any photos of it, but when they are done hunting under water they use their feet to crawl up onto a tree or the bank of the pond.
