Anhinga with a catfish

Whilst not my best quality shot it may be of interest to some. Anhingas are in the darter family, Anhingidae. Like other darters, anhingas hunt by spearing fishes and other small prey with their sharp, slender beaks. Because anhingas' feathers have an unique shape, their feathers become waterlogged when submerged in water, making it difficult for them to stay afloat. However, their waterlogged feathers allow them to dive easily and search for underwater prey, such as fish and amphibians. Anhingas can stay underwater for substantial periods of time.

Like Peter, this fabulous image made an immediate impact on me Andrew - great composition, a dynamic subject moving across the grassland, lovely tones in the evening sky and a depth of field that helps the elephant to stand out sharply against the background. I think you could improve the image further by lifting the whole image a little and particularly on the left side of the background and the hind quarters of the elephant. A couple of bright spots in front of the elephant need to be taken out and the catch light in the eye does not look natural. Great image, Andrew.
