10 Shockingly bloodthirsty birds – #2 will leave you in a big shock!

8. Anhinga

Anhinga are more commonly known as Snake Birds. When they rise up from the depths of a swamp, just their neck and razor sharp bill is visible. To add to the creepy factor, these strange waterbirds are all black, make weird growling calls, and can sink silently into view before disappearing underwater. The creatures have inspired much superstition and folklore with their disconcerting appearance and mysterious habits. To assist in diving, the bird’s plumage is not fully waterproof. The birds can occasionally be seen emerging from the swamp to dry off.
