Thank you Alexis. He wanted Sardines but all I had was an apple, he didn’t seem very impressed by that :-)

Good to see a shot of a seabird, Cormorants are great.

Life's around said Phil the 35 millimetre cameraman. I recently went to the doctors, and said I've got icon fever, but he told me there was no cure for the disease.

Oooh, very nice, Robert. I like the expression you caught on his face and the position of his head. Great sharpness as well, with good control on the white balance. Nice work :)

Superb shot of this Cormorant. Love the details of that bright shining lavender eye. His ruffled feathers look delicate and love that purple colour. Very sharp appearing bird with a proud appearance. Lovely against the softly blurred background. More quality work Robert.

I'll take your word for it as to what he is. He looks young and he's cute. Great photograph.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes
