The glassy waters of the Rainbow River . . . a kayak . . . a camera . . . all the makings of a great day as I quietly glide up to some wildlife in its natural habitat. The Hobie Sport kayak has a peddle driven propulsion system that frees both of my hands for fishing, or photography. A nice way to go. :)
The Anhinga, or "snake bird" swims underwater in pursuit of prey and is often seen spreading its wings to allow its fur-like feathers to dry.
Look close and you can see an Anhinga's neck and head above water giving the snake-like appearance.
Dinner just caught, the Anhinga hops up on the dock step to eat.
Well, that's it for today's camera safari . . . no snakes or alligators. Maybe next time . . .

Great photography Pete! I'm glad the weather finally warmed up enough for you to enjoy your kayak!

Good pix buddy. Sure wish we had one of them cool yaks !
So, now you're a bird expert. Last I heard you were identifying a bird as a "big white one".
Glad you are enjoying the canoe - all looks great.

Along with the Anhinga, I also spotted a bunch of "little brown ones" and "long necked white ones."
Hope you're enjoying the big white snow . . .
:)
