Some Sort of Dispute!

I thought that this log in Delta Ponds was a bit overcrowded with three cormorants and two turtles. Then another cormorant, actually the one on the left end, came in and booted the one in the water off the log. Now that one and the one in the middle are giving the one in the water what for! Perhaps he was trying to make time with the other's mate, who knows? But it made for a few interesting moments in my day. :)

When you've got more than a couple of birds, there's gonna be a squabble over which spot is the best. ;-)

Pretty funny! You have to wonder what they are saying to each other. ;)

Great shot Vern, I thing I came along this scene not long after you, by then there was a heron on the log too.

the turmoil rings through this scene...still, the dynamism of the birds and the beauty of the setting are potent..
