Anhinga yoga. ☺️ Otherwise known as the snake bird for its long neck. Florida is full of them, and I never minded, as they are a fun bird to watch in the water. #BirdOfTheDay #LongNecks #birds #Florida #snakebird

Male Anhinga Sunning
Rio Peñas Blancas
La Fortuna, Costa Rica
Blue eye ring signifies breeding season. They sun like this as they lack the "waterproofing" other waterbirds have so they get waterlogged diving for food.

An Anhinga in breeding plumage is a work of art! 🖼️
They stay in this startling plumage only for their breeding season, which is around March until May.
Check out those feet as well! 💕

🌎 Anhinga (Anhinga anhinga) The anhinga, also known as snakebird or American darter, is a large, dark water bird. Males are glossy greenish-black with silver-white streaking on the wings and back, while females have a paler, tan head and neck. It boasts a long, slender, pointed bill and a long, fan-shaped tail. Anhingas are found in the warmer parts of the Americas, from the southeastern U.S. south through Mexico, Central America, and much of South America. They prefer freshwater habitats like swamps, marshes, and slow-moving rivers, where they can find perches and open water. They are known as "snakebirds" due to their habit of swimming with only their head and S-shaped neck above water, they spear fish with their sharp bills. Their feathers are less waterproof than other waterbirds, so they often perch with wings outstretched to dry in the sun. They soar gracefully on thermals and typically nest colonially. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) 📷: Photo by JimDegerstrom via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/anhinga-wings-drying-bird-2501457/ QFEE

This anhinga was drying itself off after I watched it swim underwater on Sanibel Island. I love these birds for so many reasons but mostly because of that neck… #Waterbird #BirdPhotography #Snakebird #Tupi #Sanibel #DingDarling #naturepreserve #savethebirds #NaturePhotography #waterturkey

The Anhinga has been visiting a good bit lately. Also known as the "devil bird" or "snake bird," it spreads its wings after a swim to let the sun dry its feathers. It doesn't mind sharing space with the turtles. #anhinga #charlestonsc #devilbird #snakebird #birds #coastalbirds #birdsofBlueSky
