Snow White 7 Dwarfs and a Cormorant Too.



The Swans are growing apace and always looking for food, hard to believe they are only 6 weeks old and already the size of geese ! 






The recent spate has allowed some fish to migrate into the river, and the cormorant is quick to seize the opportunity for a selection such as eels and flounders ! I watched as this fellow tried to figure out how to swallow the flounder in the end, and I mean end -opting for the vertical approach!

Amazing captures of the cormorant eating that huge flatfish! Does the bird simply eat that whole thing while it's still frantically flapping about?? It looks like the unlucky fish is almost swimming down the bird's neck or is it trying to wriggling back up?! Great shots none the less, I wonder if the fish stood a slim chance at escaping the hungry bird's stomach? Keep it up! ;)
