The Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) is associated mainly with coastal waters. Swims low in the water and dives (typically with a noticeable leap) frequently for fish. This specimen was photographed settled on the branch of fallen tree at Bosherston Lily Ponds. These birds are frequent visitors to the ponds. This image is also available on my Photo4me site here.
