Cormorant taking off from the Severn at Bridgnorth

Cormorant taking off from the Severn at Bridgnorth

A cormorant was fishing in the Severn at Bridgnorth while I was crossing the old bridge recently. The current was sweeping it closer, until it decided it was too close to humans, and took off to head back upstream.

I only had time for this one picture, and the camera was on the wrong setting so the autofocus couldn’t cope with a fast-moving subject. But I liked the effect anyway.
