Note: My keyboard issue, while not resolved, has improved. The zero key is still quite touchy but random zeros are not appearing with the frequency they did yesterday. I am cautiously optimistic...

Down at the Bridge
While I was manning the bridge today I had a little avian company. This cormorant dropped in to do a little fishing and then hopped up on the fender to dry off a bit. I didn't get any good, clear shots but I got a couple of passably fair shots to share. Hope everyone had a happy Monday!

Great close up. I took a close up of a cormorant a few weeks ago, it was a Neotropical Cormorant in Belize.
Hope that keyboard clears up, try a vacuum cleaner to the keys! Might be dirt or crackers in there.
Think the pictures came out pretty good! Sometimes that's all the company one needs!! ~karen
Who knew that cormorants had blue eyes? Your photo was good enough to show us that, anyway,
Glad you zeroed in on your zero problem.
I assume (and infer from reading about sub-adults) this is a double-crested?
Heck, I think those are great shots! I love the blue eye, and the absurdly ungainly appearance of a water bird out of water.
Oooo - look at that tourquoise blue eye! Who knew! Very cool indeed.
Magnificent shots! I always like it when they're in just the right light to bring out that gorgeous blue.
randy,
Belize? Aweso0me! As you0 can see, the keybo0ard is still giving me pro0blems -- it's brand new so0 there shou0ldn't be any crumbs or0 candy in there yet
KaHo0lly,
Thanks!
wo0o0dswalker,

biobabbler,
Yes, it is a dou0ble-crested. I should have IDed it in the p0ost -- so0rry.
WE,
It's the feet that get me! I lov0e ho0w the bird hangs o0n with tho0se o0utrageou0s to0es.
Ellen,
They are pretty, aren't they?
