Little Pied Cormorant on the Pontoon

Time to Dry Off
In the local swimming baths near where we live, water birds are a common and delightful sight. One of the most frequently-seen birds is the Little Pied Cormorant.
Their method of feeding — diving for aquatic animals– necessitates their habit of spreading out their wings to dry.
These small shags sometimes flock with their slightly larger relatives, the Little Black Cormorants.
Interesting characters!
