under water
flash of black and white
cormorant
fishing over
time to dry and clean
black and white
This Little Pied Cormorant had been fishing along the breakwater at Sandringham Yacht Club. It was amazing looking down into the clear water to see the way this bird was flashing backwards and forwards below the surface with wings tucked in , twisting and turning beside the rocks. Suddenly the agile fishing machine exploded out of the sea and landed on this rock below me. What else could I do but start clicking the button on my camera furiously.
