Wow, I'd love to go shoot birds somewhere over there. Y'all have such a beautiful variety! :)

interesting.

I haven't see cormorants like these! They are pretty compared to the plain black cormorants that live here. Great example of how birds behave in bad weather.

I too would let the big guys shield me. Great contrasts in size, breeds and colors (grey to black).

The cormorant seems to be the most relaxed. Fine crowd of birds.
