Very nice shot, Richard. It doesn't look soft to me.

A cormorant looking for a late lunch over the weekend. I've always been a fan of these, especially in the water as they're a challenge to track and their eye is one of the most unique I've come across.

Kind of a neat, eerie shot, Jay! And the low camera angle helps create the mood of this shot. Well done.
