Canal Life.
For the last few weeks I've been seeing this juvenile Great Cormorant (Gairgeann - Phalacrocorax carbo) on a canal pontoon. Any time I've seen it, I didn't have a telephoto lens. Any time I took a long telephoto lens, I wouldn't see the bird. This photo is a crop from an image taken with my 40-150 zoom. Not ideal, but, acceptable.
To allow the birds to catch fish by diving, they don't have oily feathers. Consequently, they have to dry their wings.
Do you honestly believe that nonsense about having to dry their wings?
Obviously comorants think they are super jacked and they are always flexing so everybody can see.

You've got that wrong; those are long diatribes conducted on the shores of Lake Como.
