Near where I live the cormarants on occassion will spend the night on these wires.I drive by all the time hoping to photograph them . Well there they were again. I took a bunch of photos , should have used a tripod.It is so cool to watch as you can hear them squabbling with each other for space. These were taken when the sun was almost set. Would love to hear what you think . :-)

The second shot looks like the music score to Beethovans Fifth Symphony. With a little adjustment they will be first rate shots

that's a LOT of cormorants!
sure is ha ha... the pics do not even show how many it is just incredible... and they sqawk and honk at each other vying for a spot on the wires. It is kinda comical.

Funny I thought they looked like music notes also, I just downloaded the photos and posted them here quickly for folks to see as I thought it was so interesting. I took a bunch but they were hard shots to get. I just think it is so interesting that they perch on the wires like that. Usually I have only seen them on rocks.

VERY cool!
I'd have to stop for a while to watch and listen, too, if I passed that while driving!

Tried some tweaking in hopes to see more detail and added some vignetting for effect. Hope it was okay (and I hope it turned out!) Here goes....

It's different. I like them both. I like the black silhouette of mine, and I like yours too.
