New Tenants

As usually happens this time of year, Double-Crested Cormorants are starting to roost on Tern Rock. I was down there today so I got a couple of shots of the new tenants settling in.

  4. I have a love/fear relationship with birds thanks to Mr. Alfred Hitchcock...and these I think would scare the pants off me if they ever waddled near...but they are truly lovely!

  5. We have a saying here "like a shag on a rock" which means to feel a little useless because cormorants need to dry their feathers before venturing back into the water so they're kinda useless spreading their wings in the wind to dry off until they're all fluffy and oiled up and ready to dive.
