I wouldn't. That is a fine shot without any words, and doesn't need me to devalue it.

Agree. Needs no words.

I recall some years ago sitting in my car, parked in the East Green Lake parking lot (in north Seattle) and seeing a cormorant standing there on the swimming raft, drying its wings in the sun.

I didn't know until then that we had any around here.

It says so much on its own...very eloquent and beautiful. I miss the ones we used to see back East.

Here in coastal New England, cormorants are also referred to as shags.

Lovely picture.

In England they call it 'Standing there like a wazzock on the pavement.' In NZ it is 'Sitting there like a Shag on a rock.'

Both sayings mean having a befuddled appearance, or alternatively being a sitting target.
No wonder foreigners have to ask, eh?
