Information about the Anhinga:
The Anhinga is a shorebird native to the warmer parts
of North America and South America. It is a member of the
darter family. While it is not closely related to the cormorant,
it shares the ability to stay submerged for significant
periods of time when hunting. The name 'Anhinga' comes from
the Brazilian Tupi language meaning devil bird or snake
bird, because when it is hunting only the neck appears and
it looks somewhat like a snake about to strike.
