After last week’s fishing exploits, the cormorant seems to have taken heed of the signs and was back on his favoured perch this morning.

He stayed there a short while and then took to the air. He circled the pond several times before deciding on an altogether higher perch.

He seemed quite happy up there, apart from a lengthy dispute with one particular branch.

I left him still tugging on the branch, but I’ll close tonight’s blog with a slightly earlier photo taken as he circled around the pond.
