Dottie and I went to Circle B Bar Reserve this morning. A lot of birds but few in the right locations for good photography. So went to my fall back, always Cormorants on the posts for portraits at the pond area. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

If you have a bit more room top and right - not much more needed - that would be excellent. I love the portrait. Exposure and details are top-notch, and the great view of the eye is super.
