[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Phalacrocorax auritus

Eventhough its a waterbird and hunt fish by diving into water, remarkbly their feather is not waterproof like ducks. So once in a while they have to dry their feather by spreading open their wing.

Good shot well caught, but it would have been great to get both in focus.
Well done.
TFS.

The king of the pests. These birds damage the eco system, not only that, they eat all kinds of native fish which is depleating the lakes, and they feed on alwives which salmon and trout feed on. How damaging are they? Look em up on the internet.
Excelent shot, nice lighting. Well done on the composition.

Great scene, looks like fighters taking off from aircraft carrier. I like it very much. Pity that it is so small...

PT.

Ricardo, it is a great shot but I can only echo Philip with regard to gettign both in focus. Excellent work.

Quite a good shot, though its to small to allow us to see all the detail. Remember you can post 800x800 pixels on TN.
