Evening Meal
Last night I was watching this anhinga fishing in the marsh pond. Not sure if this is a female or a juvenile but it was quite skilled at catching fish. I saw it catch several in just a short amount of time, and all while dodging alligators that were floating around in the area


Very skilled, both you and the anhinga. A flipping expert is that bird!

How does he take it from the spike to the swallow? Trying to picture it….just a head tilt?
