I wanted to get out and take a walk this morning. Weather isn't the best.
Overcast and with a forecast of rain, it was starting to cloud up as the crud
burned off.

All the birds seemed settled. Except for this Double Crested Cormorant who
spent a great deal of time cleaning.

Spectacular birds though my shot doesn't do them justice.

Cool, Ian. I took lots of shots of a one year old Ian, today. My youngest grandson. Interesting subject.

My daughter, gasp, quit feeding the birds, so I haven't seen any. This is suburbs of Charlotte, NC.

I did shoot a cooked bird. From every angle, too.

Love those feathers on your bird! And the eye, you got yourself a great eye, IMO.

Nicely done Ian
Got some great light on the eye which brought out that great green color :thumb

Good capture Ian. He must having been doing his routine at a fast pace. You really froze the action and caught some excellent details well. Very impressive especially considering you weren't shooting under ideal conditions.
