I passed by one Anhinga perched in a Mangrove as I was looking for ducks.

Then I heard a splash.

I did not see where the second Anhinga came from–he might have been swimming by.

I don’t recall hearing any noises from the birds, but they sure moved a lot of water.

At one point they were both underwater, emerging with their necks entwined.

Their full wing spans, typically 40 inches / 109 cm, were on display.

In less than 30 seconds it was over, at least for a drying off period.
