Excitement ~ Sometime the cormorants will push food right up on shore and then the game's on for everybody














ZOOMED in on a few of the shots

Had a school of baitfish pushed into shallow water at low tide in front of Buenaventura a few years back. After the feeding melee was over, there were several dead birds with broken necks from diving at 'em in the rocks. Cold beers and burgers to watch the show with...
