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!
That bird sure knows how to fish! Thanks a bunch for checking these out!
Brilliant!
I appreciate you looking and commenting, thanks!
Must be a female, then, don’t you think?!? 🙂 Amazing photos!
I am thinking female. She was showing up a couple of the boys who were nearby too! 🙂
Thanks much!
Good catch!
It’s always amazing and entertaining to watch an anhinga fish!
How does he take it from the spike to the swallow? Trying to picture it….just a head tilt?

That gives you a good idea of what these amazing birds can do! 🙂
Amazing set of events that you were able to capture, beautifully done.
Well thanks Charlie, I really appreciate your kind comments!
Thea, tell me again ……?!
Wow, these are such amazing shots, Phil. I did notice the eyes, but won’t mention it this time. 🙂
Nice details. You can see it in the fish’s eyes “Save me”!
I like that surprised look in the first photo. Did I really catch that?
Awesome shot!
Chopsticks, yikes! The expression on that little fish’s face! What a great close up. 🙂 He is a great fisherman.
