Great Cormorant After work, I’ve taken this picture of the great cormorant using the Samyang 500 mm mirror lens. The distance to the bird was approximately 200 meters. The darker edges on the left and right are the leaves of the bushes and trees in our garden. Geotagged,Great Cormorant,Phalacrocorax carbo,The Netherlands Click/tap to enlarge
