She (I think she) was feeding below the lily pads. Predicting where and when she would pop up resulted in a lot of photos of blank lily pads fields. #everglades #birdsofeverglades #evergladebirds #birdphotography #birds #birdwatching #birdfreaks #nature #naturephotography #lily #pond #waterbird #freshwaterbird #birdcaptures #bird_illife #your_best_birds #nuts_about_birds #birds_capture #birdwatching #birdphotography #birdphotos #bird_brilliance #birdfreaks #naturephotography #birdlife #canonphotography #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography

Wing drying time! It seemed to me like poor design that a waterbird would have to dedicate so much time to drying out wings, where it seems so vulnerable to predation. But, the lack of oil on the wings (and denser bones) allows them to swim stealthily underwater for longer stretches (as opposed to straight diving) to stalk some prey. #anhinga #Everglades #waterbird #waterbirds #birdcaptures #bird_extreme #bird_illife #your_best_birds #nuts_about_birds #birds_capture #birdwatching #birdphotography #birdphotos #bird_brilliance #birdfreaks #naturephotography #birdlife #canonphotography #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography
