That's a beauty as well as a great shot, Sid.

Cormorant. It's a miracle I got anything at all. He was in a dark place in a canal with trees blocking most of the light. But the whole darn sequence is in focus.

Super photo and a great outcome nailing every shot. Looks like the R5m2 is a winner then.

Thanks, Mac. Yeah, the camera did very well and I'm pleased with the shot. I just wish the light would've been better. But it's a location I will visit more often as I saw more flying by. It's the reason I went to take a look.

Yup, there will be a lot more keepers in your future, aren't you glad you did it.
