RE: Double-crested Cormorant: Nature, Worth a Look! #featheredfriends
@papilloncharity (my cousin Stephen) and I were just discussing Cormorants yesterday, what great synchronicity.
These are great photos. do you know about the Chinese fishermen who use these birds to fish for them?
Great post @thebigsweed, you and @farm-mom are lucky folks.
Thanks @jerrytruseer thanks for the reply. We are so lucky to be able to afford the time off to travel. The place we are staying at now is right on a lake about three miles from the beach. There're are so many different birds here it is so cool.
I'm happy you enjoyed this post, I had a great time putting it all together.
I did enjoy it very much @thebigsweed. Tell @farm-mom I said Hi.
Here is something to stimulate your morning
Wow, thanks. What a very peaceful scene, man and nature working together.
You're welcome. Another friend from SA who was talking with me about Cormorants said that he didn't like to see wild animals used this way.
I countered that Dogs, Cats, cows and chickens etc... were all wild animals once.
Very true.
Wow @jerrytsuseer, great picture.
Nature is awesome, we love to be in the middle of it. Tomorrow we are going to spent the day on Captiva Island which is at the northern end of Sanibel Island, west coast Florida. Everything down here is connected with bridges, since all these little Islands and keys are cut off by water inlets. It's so pretty here.
When I was 16, my parents took one of those "Come see our real estate presentation and you can stay 2 nights and 3 days at a luxury hotel on Miami Beach" (they were hoping to get daddy to buy something)
So they spent most of one day at this silly thing, while my nephew and me stayed by the pool or on the beach.
The next day, we loaded up and drove all the way to Key West, got out, dipped our feet in the water so we could say we'd been there, turned around and drove all the way back to Miami Beach (the "Fountain Bleu"hotel no less)
Then we drove cross state to Tampa/St Pete and spent a couple of days/night (same real estate deal) then drove home.
Lotta driving, and being 16, I did a lot of it.
That was OH so long ago, I've barely been back since then.
