Anhingas are large, dark waterbirds with a long, thin neck, a long, thin, pointed bill, a long tail and silver patches on their wings and are found in southeastern swamps.

At first the parents feed the chicks by dripping partially digested fish down their throats. As the chicks grow older, they shove their heads into their parents’ beaks to reach their food.
