Description

I'm really not sure what kind of bird this is. I've heard of them being called water turkeys and diver ducks but I bet there is a more official sounding name. Caught him out at Pleasure Island in Port Arthur, Texas. Yall have a great day and thanks for your views and comments.

gorgeous. I love anhingas... or cormorant... or water snake bird... depending on where in the US you are from. These are incredible birds and you got a great shot! fd
