I haven’t been able to get out much recently and have missed visiting my feathered friends. So I was excited to grab my camera and stop by Huntington Beach State Park earlier this week.
Of all the birds I’ve photographed, I enjoy the anhingas the most. They have such personality. They take glory in the sun with outstretched wings yet can be as silly as a small child the next moment.
The anhinga in these photos flew over and literally belly-flopped in the water in front of me. Unfortunately, I had my camera trained on a second bird and I missed that shot. But I did get these photos as he dried himself off.

Anhingas are interesting to watch with a lot more behaviors than some of the other big birds. Nice captures!
