Anhinga anhinga
Photo take in a mangrove area near the coast. Very common in the area, I spot them very often, It is a cormorant-like bird with an average body, a very long neck, and often swims with only the neck above water.
Is a water bird of the warmer parts of the Americas. The word "anhinga" comes from the Brazilian Tupi language and means devil bird or snake bird. Wikipedia.
