Thanks to everyone who takes the time to view, comment, and fave my photo.

Observing cormorants feeding over the last few weeks, I have learned something important as a photographer. Most of the time cormorants feed in a group of between two to eight or so. I have noticed that this is when they are most successful at catching fish. They all dive underwater at the same time and swim in the same direction. My guess is as a bird approaches a fish underwater, the fish turns to avoid the cormorant chasing it and ends up in the beak of the next cormorant. They catch a lot of fish that way, but this is the problem. When they pop up out of the water with a fish in their beak they have to swallow down the fish immediately or one of the other cormorants next to them will try to steal it. A cormorant feeding alone is not nearly as successful at catching fish, but when they do they can take their time swallowing it. That gives the photographer a lot more time to get focused in and get some photos. I took this photo at Reid park in Tucson Arizona.

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FAVES

ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK

I love the little white markings on its head. I have a special fondness for the loners of this world.

Saw a wild goose at a natural bathing lake and watched him all day..a loner and not at all shy..up to a certain distance...

I took this while staying in a cottage in Port Renfrew while on vacation. The leaf was sitting on the railing of the deck outside, and I don't know if you can tell, but it was raining. Right after this, a torrential downpour started, and the rest of the day was spent inside the cozy cottage.

The Loner, the famous tree on Buttermere in the Lake District. I have seen this tree so many times i thought it was only right to take a look. A cold morning, nobody else around and a not too bad a sky.

I usually consider myself a very social person now. When I was little I was a really loner. Something happened in college, and I made the transition. But still sometimes I go to parties, and feel really out of place. Then I switch back to my cocoon.
