Balancing Act 2013-03-12 This cormorant wanted to keep one foot warm. Resting above the city in Vienna and checking out the surroundings. Many thanks for the kind comments on the swan's three point landing. Much appreciated.

Warming up This shot was taken two weeks ago, and early March was still a bit early for courting, so I assume this guy was just practising his display skills. I need to return and see how he is doing now. Many thanks for the comments on my amusement park shot. The cold & snow of the last few days is now past, so spring can start.
