I have lots of shots of anhingas doing all sorts of things action-oriented. But there was something about this shot of the anhinga just resting in the forest that I liked better. Taken early one morning in Corkscrew Swamp in Naples Florida while visiting my mother a few years ago. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 1600, f/4 at 1/100th of a second

Wow, what a beautiful bird, Sean! Am adding this species to my photo bucket list. Like the Fourth, well done!
Its turquoise eye sure stands out next to its dark feathers.
——- Gracefully perched
——- On forest frond

Agree with you. Seeing it with the forest as a background is more unusual than the typical shots of this bird against water. This is stunning.
Really love this one. Beautiful, unearthly setting; that eye.
