On the Santa Fe

| As I rounded a bend early on this cold, misty morning on the Santa Fe River I was greeted by this sight. The cormorant was sitting on the log in a spread wing posture, which ornithologists believe serves to dry their wings after fishing. I didn't know how successful he was going to be in the cold and the damp. |

I watched him for about 20 minutes while moving closer and closer. He let me get quite near. As the sun began to break through the mist, I moved on leaving him to take advantage of the of the sunlight to finish drying his wings.
