The day I was in Dysart this cormorant was perched on a rock by the seashore. The photo’s a bit hazy since I had to use the zoom.

A few weeks before I had caught this one – perhaps the same one – atop a pole in the sea off Ravenscraig Beach, Kirkcaldy.

In the background to the left of the ship you can see the prominent landmark of North Berwick Law on the south bank of the Forth estuary.
