I took this photo while on the beach last weekend. These are cormorants that like to hang out on a long row of pilings. I also took this picture of a short row of seagulls.
Also I am in a little competition on Blog Interviewer.com and if you wouldn’t mind, could you pop over there and vote for my interview.

You did it Drew, I was looking for birds in a row all week to no avail. I stalked ducks and geese but the darn things wouldn’t cooperate.
Now that’s really sneaky to add the bloginterview.com button to this post. I should have thought of that.
There was a woman on Maury Povich that was afraid of birds, and it was quite possibly the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. However, then he brought out a woman afraid of cotton balls…and well, that just says it all!!
I love the cormorants shot. It reminds me of a scene in Finding Nemo.
So those are cormorants! They are neat.
But how did you manage to get them to line up in rows for you! You lucky stiff!
I love those photos. I could look at birds all day. Oh, yeah, I do look at birds all day. Sometimes I even see a cormorant from my window! I like it when they open their wings to dry off. They look funny.
Nice shot for the theme. Very well taken. Those seagulls looked like triplets. Happy Weekend! http://crizlai.blogspot.com/2007/08/photo-hunters-row.html
Nice one Drew, or should i say two.How long did you have to wait for the seagulls to line up??
Cheers Mark
Hi JMB,
The cormorants line up every day on those pilings. Tey spend the entire day there jumping into the water and back out. The seagulls aren’t always there however, they took some waiting.
Mo,
I can see being afraid of birds. I thought the pickle lady was funny. But cotton balls? That is weird.
Lynn,
I will have to watch Nemo again. I don’t remember cormorants. I remember the seagulls shouting “mine” though.
Meeyauw,
Just call me the bird whisperer. LOL.
Daisy, you must have a great view. The cormorants are pretty funny when they dry their wings.
Thanks Criz. I’ll be checking out your submission this week too. The seagulls do look a little like triplets.
Thanks Mark,
The seagulls took a while to wait for. There were some kids on the beach who kept chasing them and scattering them. But the patient paid off eventually.
Both beautiful examples 🙂
Happy Saturday!
Wonderful shots! 🙂 Such great wildlife photos. 🙂 Perfect for this week’s theme. 🙂
Interesting rows of birds. . . I am truly getting a worldwide education this week. Come and see mine if you haven’t already.
What cool pictures!
Believe it my friend….
And Maury is so dang sympathetic!! Ha!

Thank you deb. I appreciate the visit. Glad you liked the photos.
Thanks Dragonheart, I love watching the birds on the pilings. They are very interesting.
Hi Paulie,
Glad to see you back on the hunt. I will be stopping over after I respond to all my comments. Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks very much Barbara. I liked them and am glad you did too.
Mo, that is so sad it is funny. Cotton balls. Come on now. And yeah Maury was very sympathetic.
hi alisonwonderland, Thanks for the comments. I am now off to check out all the great photos that are out there today.
What is a comorant? I never heard of them before now.
A cormorant is a sea bird that dives deep into the water to catch fish. They have to dry their wings out after they swim.
