I recently sold a slate-colored classic t-shirt with a male fit and with print of my work of art called “Anhinga water bird” in my TeePublic art shop. www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/2763...

🌎 Anhinga (Anhinga anhinga) The anhinga, also known as snakebird or American darter, is a large, dark water bird. Males are glossy greenish-black with silver-white streaking on the wings and back, while females have a paler, tan head and neck. It boasts a long, slender, pointed bill and a long, fan-shaped tail. Anhingas are found in the warmer parts of the Americas, from the southeastern U.S. south through Mexico, Central America, and much of South America. They prefer freshwater habitats like swamps, marshes, and slow-moving rivers, where they can find perches and open water. They are known as "snakebirds" due to their habit of swimming with only their head and S-shaped neck above water, they spear fish with their sharp bills. Their feathers are less waterproof than other waterbirds, so they often perch with wings outstretched to dry in the sun. They soar gracefully on thermals and typically nest colonially. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) 📷: Photo by JimDegerstrom via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/anhinga-wings-drying-bird-2501457/ QFEE
