Cormorant with Prey

[SamFisher]

I shot this on the stretch of the River Don near home.
The Cormorant struggled to get the trout down his throat but made it in the end.

Re: Cormorant with Prey

A very good capture by you and the cormorant. BUT don't show it to any fishermen friends you may have

Re: Cormorant with Prey

Re: Cormorant with Prey

Right place and right time, well captured. I witnessed the tussel one had with an eel a few months ago
