A Handsome Fella

Description


This handsome fellow was found at Brackenridge Park in San Antonio, TX. He was quite cooperative and more than happy to show off what he thought was his best side. :) That's the real color of his eyes - all cormorants have amazingly striking aquamarine colored eyes. Happy Friday, BP'ers!

Background texture added.
