More proof that an anhinga WILL eat something bigger than its head. Glad that you were there to capture the moment--thanks for sharing.

What kind of fish was it ? :) looks like a bass, maybe small mouth? Really magical when you think about disappearing acts! Gulp. nothing up this sleeve and nothing up this sleeve...
Amazing pix ~ and scientific name easy to remember.
