[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Double-crested Cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus)

Despite years of persecution by fishermen who viewed it as a competitor, despite pesticide use and chemical pollution, the species is increasing in number and expanding its range.

The word "cormorant" is derived, through French, from the Latin corvus marinus, or "sea crow."

Hi Daniel,
Great action shot! The head and neck are sharp and the rest is part of the action. Fine lighting.
A species of cormorant new to me and you can see the difference between it and the Great Cormorant by the color at the base of the beak and cheek.
TFS, regards, Ivan

Bonjour Daniel,
Superbly capturing this flying cormorant. Nicely timed. Water splash and blurry wings give a strong sense of movement. Excellent shot.

Bonjour Daniel,
Magnifique photo de ce cormorant pris sur le vif. Est-ce qu'il évitait une cascade? La chute de l'eau et l'envol de l'oiseau sont du plus bel effet.
Belle journée
Anne

This is a good catch in action! Great details and composition with good exposure.

Allo Daniel,
C'est une superbe prise de ce Cormorant en action, vraiment! Le mouvement de l'eau en arrière est superbe et malgré la vitesse de 1/200, vous avez résussi à capter plusieurs détails de l'oiseau dans une excellente composition. Bravo et merci,
Claudine
