Caught this fine fellow while on a drift dive in the Rainbow River in Florida. (Actually a Anhinga rather than a Comorant- Thanks Paavo!)

HAHA, excellent catch Mike. Now that's a perspective birders just don't see often. Unless they watch the Nature channel. :D

Cool shot! But I believe it's an Anhinga rather than a Cormorant.

Nice capture Mike. We've seen shots of birds over one and in the water but I don't ever recall seeing a bird underwater here before.
