Weekly Photo Challenge: Waiting
I took a picture of this Anhinga last Saturday (here) afternoon while it was waiting to dry out its feathers. This bird’s feather become waterlogged after foraging underwater and afterwards has to dry out. Unlike the cormorant which can come above water and take off immediately. Usually the Anhinga fans out all of its feathers for drying, unfortunately this bird couldn’t oblige.
