Cormorant
Today along the estuary a rather large bird glided in with a splosh. I watched it for a while wondering what it was , then I saw it diving and I knew it was a Cormorant, I waited for a while taking snaps then he came onto the shore to preen and dry off. here is a nice photo of him drying his wings

Strange but quite intriguing birds Chocky, I managed to get a couple of photos last year, they are on the www.wellenkamp.com site, but they were taken from a distance.
-
They are quite big and rather not goodlooking but yeas intriguing. When they dive they come up quite away from where they went down
-
They have a few down at the nearby gravel pits, must go down there during the summer and see if I can get some shots. :)
-
Gravel pits. I know they can also like Herons fish in fresh water Tere are a few at kelsaey Park in Kent. I must upload our local heron . He visits the park and you wouldn''t believe this hege bird nests in tree tops. :)
Are there fish in the gravel pit?
-
Yes Chocky, it is owned by an angling club, so the Cormorants are not too popular. :)
-
Oh .I was picturing a quarry gravel pit.:bang:
No The Cormorant would not be welcom there then

Added for you Chocky. :)
Now that's strange, I added it at 08:00 this morning and it showed a picture which would indicate that the video is there, but searching with the number says no video found.:conf40:
