.. I have an interesting Lady Hawk video of the anhinga doing it's thing with that poor fish!
SWFL Eagles ~ Anhinga Catches A Fish & Swallows It Whole! 12.8.22
The anhinga swimming towards shore with a speared fish -- scaps are from the video
That fish is stuck on it's bill
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZUPKz9i_C8
WOW that fish is really stuck there
Come on already
From Lady Hawk -- Dec 9, 2022
An Anhinga is seen swimming in the pasture pond with a freshly caught fish in its bill and it heads over to the cove fence to eat it. The anhinga has to first get the fish off its bill order to eat it. The Anhinga is also known as the snake-bird for its habit of swimming with its body submerged in the water and just its long thin head and neck visible. Anhinga's are commonly seen here in the pond and instead of catching a fish with its bill like a cormorant does, the anhinga will spear a fish, flip it into the air and swallow them headfirst. Down the hatch it goes! Thank you for watching!
Finally--down the hatch
That was a lot of work!! Video captured & edited by Lady Hawk

Harriot flies toward office from other side of pond at 3:13 PM. Thanks to the Pritchetts for getting cameras back up, we can see more of Harriot's beautiful flight. I love how she controls her wing and tail feathers. She is truly a magnificent creature.

At 4:35 PM Harriot was at pond bathing. M15 leaves nest and goes to the pond for sips of water. Harriot flies east and M returns to the nest.
Re: SW Florida Eagle Cam 2022~2023
5:55pm -5:57pm - Harriet watched over her nest tree territory from the Outer Branch while M15 was
down in their nest incubating E1 & E2.
6:08pm - While M15 was enjoying his incubating time, Harriet arrived to the nest and M15 wasn't really ready to get up.

Re: SW Florida Eagle Cam 2022~2023
Good Saturday morning to everyone. I see you Sunnybird--thanks for s'caps.
This is indeed a foggy morning. Both birds are wet--probably from fog.

Fog begins to lift and Harriot can be seen high in nest tree. Then she flies East toward the pond.
