Title: The Bright Song of the Florida Anhinga

Similar to the Cormorant (it has the curve at the end of its beak), the Anhinga, lacking oil on its wings must dry them after several dives or it will pretty much sink.

Beautiful, Chris. The backlighting on the neck and beak is exquisite.

What did you use to capture this?
