The Ottawa River has a strong Cormorant population. Creating some great shooting. Camo netting was used, to help break up my profile. Camera was on tripod and gimbal. Camo netting also covered my gear and hung from the lens.
Worked great! As the birds would not change their flight pattern, as they approached. Tricky birds to shoot, as they are so dark and quite shy.
