The classic pose

We were happy to see a few cormorants at the gardens the last time we were there, but the great blue heron is gone for the time being.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly
unsharp.

Drying the wings is always a great pose to capture these cormarants.

Light great and nice stop action work.
