I don't know the name of this bird, but I thought he was handsome and considerate to pose for me.
Have a great Wednesday.

His wings look peculiar - I like the symmetry of the middle one in particular. Very nice series.
ReplyDeleteLooks exotic to me. ;-) He/she doesn't appear to be shy at all!
ReplyDeleteHe looks gorgeous. Very considerate to pose for you. Fantastic shots.
ReplyDeleteFar more cooperative then our cats!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what it is either but it sure does have a long neck. It really did pose for you. I'm always glad to catch a bird but I hate when they just sit there. You got a good one. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a unique looking bird, great shots.
ReplyDeleteCheers

Looks like he doesn't have a boan in his neck! Beautiful bird!
ReplyDeleteCould be wrong but is it an Anhinga? I saw some very similar birds on a trip to the Everglades in Florida years ago. Great photos Jan.
ReplyDeleteI don't know its name either. Its neck might be long but I think he/she is camera shy. Very good entry.
ReplyDeletefantastic photo's. He was very considerate.
ReplyDeletePossibly a cormorant, and definitely concerned with looking his best!
ReplyDeletelooks like she's cleaning herself. beautiful bird.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots Jan...It does look like it's cleaning itself.
ReplyDeleteWell darn it, I'm delighted to see you're alive and kicking!
ReplyDeleteWas worried a bit when your other blog disappeared. LOL
awesome bird as the background of the water.
ReplyDeleteGreat series of captures! My favorite is the last one. Don't know the name too but he's very interesting! :)
ReplyDeleteHow nice of this elegant bird to pose for you.
ReplyDeleteHandsome, indeed! Nice photos
ReplyDeleteAmazing creature. He did give you quite a show. Lovely clear pictures of this bird. Love the streapy feathers on his back.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jan for your wonderful comments. I too visit you often, but don't always leave a message. Sometimes I do my visiting late at night, and at a time when I really should be in bed.
ReplyDeleteThe Anhinga is one of my favorites, mainly because we don't have them here. What a terrific group of shots. I believe this to be an adult female.

THe bird seems self-absorbed. Lucky for you - you to these great shots!
ReplyDeleteAmerican Anhinga...he put on a good show for you.

That's amazing, what a neck and I was going to say, an anhinga. They're the birds that swim with their bodies in the water.
ReplyDeleteVery handsome indeed! Fabulous capture!!
