A cormorant perched

A double-crested cormorant dries its wings in the sunshine

Double-crested cormorants fish, nest and fly all over Caye Culker where we stayed in Belize. There were a few wooden posts where they would often stop to preen, dry off and then watch for their next meal. Here I got off the dock, waded a bit closer to the bird and put the camera low to the water for this shot.

  1. Love their green eyes and their “drying” position.

    This bird gives me vibes of prehistoric times, similar to the Heron.
