They are called Darters here. They are also called the Snake Bird, which
becomes a pretty obvious name, after looking at the video. The curious
thing about them, and the cormorant family in general, is that their
feathers are not waterproof, extremely strange for a bird dependent on
water for survival, which is why they are often seen in their iconic pose,
wings spread apart for drying.

Cheers
