Cormorant - Phalacrocorax carbo
Canon 600mm f4.0 for 1/1600th @ iso400
Now an all to common sight on inland waterways, and a fairly frequent visitor to the pond, albeit in my opinion an unwelcome visitor, I suspect some of the neighbours quite like to see it, especially when it stands about drying it’s wings. The number of fish have dwindled in the pond and some larger fish inhabitants which include a shoal of Bream are certainly looking less in number. This visitor probably accounts for the biggest reduction of fish and can quite often be seen swimming about and fishing.
