The African Darters (Anhinga rufa) are also commonly known as Snakebirds - named so for the way their thin, long, snake-like necks are often seen sticking out of the water as the rest of their bodies is submerged, or when mated pairs twist their necks during their bonding displays. These water birds are able to turn, twist and contort their necks in unusual ways.

The name "Darter" alludes to their manner of procuring food, as they impale fishes with their slim, pointed beaks.

They are endemic to tropical sub-Saharan Africa, where they are typically found in or near bodies of both saline and fresh water.

The African Darters are large, slim water birds that measure about 80 cm in length, including their long, rounded tails. These cormorant-like birds often swim with only the neck above water. They have very long and sharp beaks, which they use to spear their slippery fish prey.

They are able to retract and extend their necks and maintain the neck retracted during flight - unlike most other long-necked birds

 

This beautiful African Darter was photographed during a photography safari on a late evening boat ride along the shores of Lake Naivasha, Kenya.

We had a tiny bit of sunshine before the storm front hit on the weekend and our storks took the chance for a sunbath on the church roof. This is the view from my new apartment and I'm definitely looking forward to watching the stork's nest. I'm still pretty occupied with my move (these things take forever), which is why I'm constantly behind on Flickr... I'm trying to catch up though :-)

Thanks for looking.

Who loves sitting in the sun ? Indeed, Evi the toy poodle. and preferably on a lot of cushions... Montnaken, Belgium

Spending Thanksgiving soaking up the last rays of summer.

This may be a variety of turtles or just all Red-eared sliders (Trachemys scripta elegans). The smallest one's red markings are visible the others may not be as obviously red-eared. There are several native MO turtles that have the striped heads so closer looks would be required for IDs. They were all enjoying the sunshine after several cloudy and rainy days. We all feel that way as well.
