Birds Cormorants - Post Your Shots Here

[Tim Mayo]

I don't think we have a cormorant thread so I thought I'd start one. Here's a young cormorant I spotted on the River Teme in Ludlow on the weekend. Cropped here to 4000px.

Here's a light shot from a few weeks ago. Montezuma Wildlife Refuge in Seneca Falls, NY R5, 100-500 @ 500 F 7.1 1/2000 ISO 3200.

Taken last year not long after I'd bought the R5. I'd gone out for walk just to see how good it was with the coverter and Sigma 150-600 sport lens. They work well together

I finished with distant birds until there is an R7 in the bag. The RP and 600mm f/11 required too much cropping. 1/500 ISO 500 - If I had it to do over, I would use a faster shutter and higher ISO. Noise is easier to fix than blur.

Thanks! Second one was was about 37% of the frame. What I called a heavy crop before the R5.

This cormorant was a regular visitor to our condo retention pond early this fall. He preferred to ride around on the fake swans (meant to deter the neighborhood geese) and scan for fish. I called him Cormy the Pirate.
