Came across about 12 cormorants perched on old wall of disused swimming baths yesterday.
Attached gives some idea of their green eye colour, and plumage details can be seen in second bird.
This is about 20% of frame.
500D(T1i)/100-400L IS + 1.4 extender.

Alas I couldn't get any closer, however it does demonstrate the advantage of more pixels (15MP) when cropping.
