The anhinga has poor insulation against the cold, confining it to mostly tropical and subtropical latitudes
Successive dives ruffle the feathers of the anhinga, requiring the bird to spend much of its time preening
The anhinga can take several minutes to manipulate and swallow a big fish

The anhinga tolerates other birds and is often found in mixed breeding colonies with egrets, ibises and cormorants
The anhinga belongs to an order of fish-eating waterbirds that includes pelicans, gannets, egrets, ibises and cormo
