Not sure exactly what kind of cormorants these are, but they were so precious and I just love their coloring.  It was fun to see them feeding, although you can't see the food in this picture.

This is a wonderful picture.  YOu can almost see the food in the parent's beak. 

Where was this picture taken?  Are these birds indiginos to your area?

Have you any more that we could see?

This picture was taken at the San Diego Wild Animal Park.  (you can probably view it a little larger in the gallery)
I'll have to see what other shots I have of these guys.  I do have one of some other water birds (not sure what kind.  Haven't done the research, yet) that I'm processing.  The food is stretched between the mother bird's beak and the baby bird's beak.  It's cool. 

Don't think I'll get to it today, though, my hubby's taking me to shoot (with my camera, mind you) some birds of prey in a few minutes.  There are over 200 pairs that nest near our home as we live in the National Birds of Prey Area in Idaho. (1/2 hr. or so away)  Bald Eagles, Golden Eagles, hawks and many others.  Fun stuff!

Great photo of the cormorants. I will be interested to see the birds of prey photo when you process them.

I agree with Marilyn.  I am looking forward to seeing what pictures you caught!

Well, I think the eagles had already moved on due to it warming up so early this spring.  I did post a turkey vulture that I caught, though.  It's under a new topic of Turkey Vulture in flight.

You may be ablr to get the eagles in the autumn when the weather cools. 

I saw the vulture as well.  Your lines are so crisp and clean.

I find the cormorants so interesting.  There are many down on Lake Ontario that we've watched over the years.  Also known as "diving birds" as you never know where they'll come up to the surface when they dive.

Great photo!
