Wing drying time! It seemed to me like poor design that a waterbird would have to dedicate so much time to drying out wings, where it seems so vulnerable to predation. But, the lack of oil on the wings (and denser bones) allows them to swim stealthily underwater for longer stretches (as opposed to straight diving) to stalk some prey. #anhinga #Everglades #waterbird #waterbirds #birdcaptures #bird_extreme #bird_illife #your_best_birds #nuts_about_birds #birds_capture #birdwatching #birdphotography #birdphotos #bird_brilliance #birdfreaks #naturephotography #birdlife #canonphotography #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography
Feather pants, baby!! 🪶👖 I took this shot at a falconry event over last summer using the amazing Tamron 35-150mm FE. I loved the lens so much I ended up buying my own copy of it. Killer optics!
