One of my regular, cormorant fishing buddies
One of the cormorants that I have been around so much, they accept my very close presence. I have always been tempted to touch one in that they let me that close, but after spending a considerable amount of time building a relationship with these guys, I don't want to chance anything that might frighten them.

The double-crested cormorant is a member of the cormorant family of seabirds. It occurs along inland waterways as well as in coastal areas, and is widely distributed across North America, from the Aleutian Islands in Alaska down to Florida and Mexico.
