"Balanced"

I love photographing at Harris Neck National Wildlife Refuge in Townsend, Georgia. The refuge is a former WWII Army airfield.

There is an abundance of wildlife on the 2,762 acres which consists of saltwater marsh, cropland, grassland, and mixed deciduous woods.

This Anhinga was perched on the tree "sunbathing" when I first walked up. The Red-winged blackbird decorates the top of the tree.

This is my first up close shot of the Anhinga.  It was termed the "Devil bird--evil spirit of the woods" by the natives of Brazil.  It is definitely a strange looking bird.
