Today there were 5 cormorants on Mytchett Lake.  There is ussually one there, and occasionally two.  They normally just sit in a tree doing a bit of preening if they are feeling active.

Today was different. When I arrived there were five of them perched in two trees.  They quickly started to fish groups of 2 or three.  At one point, 4 of them were close together on the water.every now ang again, there would be a bit of a kerfuffle and I would snap away.  They were 100-150 yards away, and I couldn't see the fish until I looked at the back of the camera.
