Anhingas are such cool birds, thanks for tickling my recollection.

Good framing and nice detail on the extended wings. The bird also appears to be engaging me. Pity that large parts of it are obscured by the branches. Not an image killer but it's something I look for when shooting birds...get them as unobstructed as possible, if I can, otherwise I don't shoot and wait for a better chance or go home. I think it's OE by at least a stop and this washed out the overall colour and contrast. For this reason, without some PP which NG frown upon, I doubt it would be published, sorry!

Nice detail in the wings.
