(1) The anhinga is a large bird with a long S-shaped neck and a long pointed bill.(2) Ortiz and his field office director at the time, Fernando ‘Pino’ Rubio del Valle, pointed out several birds with North American relatives - orioles and anhinga - and an osprey, which migrates between North and South America.(3) Around the lake we could see samples of most of Florida's native birds, such as osprey, anhinga , eagles, hawks, and herons.(4) One look at an anhinga 's picture should remind you of the reptile precursors of birds!(5) Most of the postcranial elements belong to continental waterbirds, including pelicans, anhingas , herons, storks, ducks, and rails.(6) Anhingas adopt a rather bizarre-looking pose for long stretches of time, remaining immobile and apparently oblivious even to passing boaters.(7) Cormorants and shags have been considered closely related to other totipalmate birds (tropicbirds, frigatebirds, anhingas , gannets and boobies, pelicans), which when taken together, form Pelecaniformes.(8) Anhingas in their more typical water environment usually are found in the water or sitting on a post or tree limb.(9) Also known as the "Snakebird," the Anhinga often swims with its body submerged and only its head and long slender neck visible above the water.(10) Anhingas have webbed feet and a beak like an arrow to catch fish.(11) The evolutionary relationships of anhingas and darters remain unclear.(12) Anhingas and Double-crested Cormorants, representing closely allied avian families, share a spread-winged behavior that is superficially identical.(13) Anhingas are very similar to Cormorants. They are both diving birds and can swim quite a distance underwater to catch fish.(14) Cormorants and anhingas live in freshwater wetlands, swamps, lakes, rivers, and estuaries (wet areas near the ocean where freshwater and saltwater mix).(15) The anhingas , which spent their spring and summer scattered here and there along the Texas coast and inland waterways, follow their instinct, drift south and gather together.(16) Easier to watch were the anhingas ,who between long dives underwater swam with nothing but their snaky necks and heads above the water's surfaces.
