Enjoying another beautiful captures, series style.
Exceptional.
I'm guessing it didn't choke to death. Must be something else  :p
Keep up the beautiful work.

Thank you very much, Richard! Glad you enjoy it.

Well Shalu...I'm guessing that fish is being processed into bird poo as I type. :lol:

:-P:lol:

and here comes another cormorant! Can you anticipate the drama that is about to unfold? :-P:lol:

Gorgeous!

Thank you ! The bird was so busy feeding, that I managed to get really close (3-3.5m)

Ha. Could have guessed it.
They're not at all welcome here. Called thieves, robbers and it only gets worse. Often shot on site.

That caps it all off. But then probably more to this storey yet  :p

All nattering aside it's a beautiful action shot well captured.

Awesome capture, Shalu. I can only assume that one of those two cormorants is going to go home with an empty stomach. :lol:
