Double-crested Cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) are perched in the late afternoon sun at the Leonabelle Turnbull Birding Center in Port Aransas, Texas. The photo was taken 6 years before the Birding Center was heavily damaged by Huricane Harvey. Repair plans are underway.

The Double-crested Cormorant is the most numerous and widespread North American cormorant. It's also the only one that occurs in large numbers inland as well as on the coast. Growing in numbers throughout its range, this cormorant is increasingly being blamed for declines in sport fisheries and for devastating fish farms.

The double-banded plover, known as the banded dotterel or pohowera in New Zealand. They breed in New Zealand's subantarctic Auckland Islands, and generally migrate in winter to Australia.
Not a great shot as I had to zoom in a very long way to photograph them, but I was very excited to see them.
Thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.

I missed the tulip season at the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art but I did come away with this composition that I was excited to share with you. Leading lines and reflections make me smile.

The double-crested cormorant is a member of the cormorant family of water birds. It is found near rivers and lakes and in coastal areas and is widely distributed across North America, from the Aleutian Islands in Alaska down to Florida and Mexico. Measuring 70–90 cm (28–35 in) in length, it is entirely black except for a bare patch of orange-yellow facial skin and some extra plumage that it exhibits in the breeding season when it grows a double crest in which black feathers are mingled with white.
Five subspecies are recognized. It mainly eats fish and hunts by swimming and diving. Its feathers, like all cormorants, are not waterproof, and it must dry them out after spending time in the water. Once threatened by the use of DDT, the numbers of this bird have increased markedly in recent years. (Wikipedia)
Laddie and I are Bobsitting again, I’ve known Bob since he was a pup when he was a playmate of Indy too. He has stayed with us on countless occasions and is always a welcome guest even if he is a bit of a rascal sometimes.
Mammoth amounts of noise reduction as the iso was so high due to the fading light. Hence not the greatest detail by any standards. But to get to spend some time in the company of this gorgeous girl was a rare treat ☺️❤️
