Birds- Yes! Got it!

Everglades National Park in Florida is a birder's paradise. Here, beautiful birds surround you. One evening, I was returning from a guided tour and I saw this cormorant diving. I noticed it returned back from the dive few feet away with its catch! It was getting dark and I got a semi-silhouette of the bird-with-catch!

    Your timing was good to get this nice picture! One of my favorite areas about two hours from where I live. -- Wally

    what do you think it picked up? I had a similar photo (not a close as yours), a long while ago and it looked similarly as if a prawn/shrimp type catch rather than a fish. Or is it a fish with weed wrapped around it perhaps?

      It doesn't exactly look like shrimp. But could be something similar. My earlier guess was sea slug, but they tend to be very colorful it seems. I don't have any idea. But not fish wrapped up :)

      BTW, welcome to my blog :) Thanks for visiting.

      Thanks you Mary for your kind words. The catch is more talked about than the bird ha ha ...
