Here are 2 birds that you don’t expect to get in the same frame all that
often. I ended up at the zoo last Friday, and in amongst all the exotic animals
I found a (wild) cormorant wedged in between 2 peacocks that were feeding around
one of the artificial lakes.
Despite the fact the environment where I found them in is obviously as
artificial as they come, I was surprised how readily the cormorant was prepared
to stand its ground given the size difference between the birds. It was
receiving the occasional peck from both left and right, but managed to return
fire with its long bill. In hindsight I probably should have made a greater
effort to get some decent DoF, instead of just firing off a few frames on the
way through. Still an interesting combination though.
Cheers
