Stunning shot Sid, these are such an active species.

Thanks Mike and Bob for the encouragement! :)

Wow...I love this shot. I'm staying tuned and holding my breath. Who will be the victor? By the way, Shalu, you've done some remarkable photography on this series.


llamedos wrote in post #18801891 (external link)
Great sequence, turning into a real soap opera.


llamedos wrote in post #18801897 (external link)
It's a relay race! great sequence.

Thank you very much, Mike and llamedos!

now one cormorant emerged with fish, but which one is it, the Hunter or the Thief? (hint: you can tell them apart by one trait):
