If you ever see a Double-Creasted Cormorant make sure you pay attention to the eyes, they are just stunning.

    Cool shot! thumb.gif

    I've noticed the green eyes before but never made it this close to one of these guys to get a shot like this.

    Nice shot Nick. thumb.gifthumb.gif Those eyes of the cormorant are really cool. Maybe even cooler than a night heron's ? headscratch.gif Well done.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Excellent Nick
    Green eyes? all I've seen was a blur when I capture them. Nice shot. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you came home with from your shoot. Hope you had a great time.

    The trick to getting this close is to dress up like a fish ne_nau.gif. Or just find a very cooperative subject

    I don't know Mike, BCNH eyes are pretty neat also but I've never been able to get this close to one.

    I had an excellent time Dave. Now comes the hard part of processing and sorting them all out :cry. Get any new Eagle shots recently?
