Cormorants





These pics were taken about a week ago, but I have not had chance to post them until now. They were taken at Salford Priors gravel pits, which are about six miles from Alcester. On arriving I could not believe how many Cormorants there were. I counted twenty four in one tree alone. No wonder the local anglers are up in arms. Also around were a couple of Herons, and best of all a little Egret. It was the first time I have seen one these, managing to get a really good view in the binoculars, but not close enough to photograph it.

  2. I regularly have 3/400 Cormorants of a weekend heading towards Reculver from inland sites, quite a sight.
