Yes, I agree with the Anhinga group. They are quite a show when they spread their wings to dry out, with all the black and white alternating banding of feathers.
The top of the Cormorant's beak is hooked at the end. The Anhinga fishes by spearing the fish underwater, the Cormorant by grabbing the fish in it's beak underwater.

Markings on wings look like Anhinga. Beak is same as Anhinga.

Ah.. But is it a cormorant? The Cormorant has a hooked bill. This looks like an Anhinga.
