Corvo Marinho // Great cormorant

(Phalacrocorax carbo)

 

I even feared he would emerge into the hydrohide. And that could be a problem because I wouldn't have minimum focus distance :-)

 

In spite of the great proximity I didn't have many chances with this hyperactive guy. Whenever I get it to frame, immediately after it has emerged, it had already submerged again.

==================***==================

All my photos are now organized into sets by the country where they were taken, by taxonomic order, by family, by species (often with just one photo for the rarer ones), and by the date they were taken.

So, you may find:

- All the photos for this order SULIFORMES (105)

- All the photos for this family Phalacrocoracidae (Falacrocoracídeos) (60)

- All the photos for this species Phalacrocorax carbo (34)

- All the photos taken this day 2017/11/24 (12)
