It was nice to get a shot showing the double crests. The cormorant was drying off on a old post in the Siuslaw River (Oregon coast).

Excellent job bringing out the detail in the plumage on this bird, Allen. The feather patterns are beautiful and the eye and bill really pop. Well done.

Classic cormorant pose with a nice head turn. I like the old piling perch and the non-distracting background.
