Hey Jeff,

Good shots. Those guys are hard to shoot in the air because they move pretty fast. Usually I will shoot them with a positive EV adjustment. I will usually start at ev +0.7

So, first let me say good job - the first is quite nice! Would you believe I saw my first cormorant ever on Sunday. I didn't know they lived here, so I really had to have a good look. Got several shots(no bifs tho), one good enough to clearly id it as a cormorant!

I will share it once I have the hard drive space to start my 3 gigs of photos from the weekend. sigh!
