This Reed Cormorant was photographed at the Rietvlei Nature Reserve near Pretoria, South Africa. It is a fairly common fresh water bird. It is a quiet bird that cackles when in breeding colonies but is quiet the rest of the time.
It is about 1/2 a metre tall. What attracted me to this scene is the bird's red eyes, here clearly visible. I did not edit these pictures. These birds' eyes are really this red.
I will soon be adding some of my color pictured to my website, www.coismeyer.com.
