Double-crested Cormorant at Florida

Florida's low-lying peninsula, laced with freshwater marshes and cypress swamps, provides an ideal stage for observing the Double-crested Cormorant against the backdrop of the Atlantic and Gulf coastlines. Photographers joining the Florida Ospreys holiday in April will find these waters equally productive for cormorant sightings, as the birds make use of the same wetland mosaic. Patience around the marsh edges often rewards the lens with striking views of this adaptable waterbird. The interplay of open water and dense cypress cover makes for varied and rewarding compositions throughout the trip.
