The Lone Sentry.

A very brief circuit around a local pond just after midday. The water was very quiet with Mallard, Coot and  Tufted Duck hiding out of the wind in the furthest margins; Moorhen disappearing into the weeds and just a single solitary Cormorant on sentry duty on its usual post.
So with little happening it was back home to catch up on a few DIY chores.  FAB

  3. Love the image of the lonely feathered watcher over the water! The cormorant looks as if he has all the time in the world to dream!
