20200526-MMPI0064

Tuesday 26th May 2020 saw me drop into University of Queensland at St Lucia, Queensland, Australia for a short pre-work outing. The morning saw some lovely light, and with many Little Black Cormorants nesting in a tree on the lake there were lots of good opportunities for in-flight shots. I got several images of these birds returning with another stick to improve their nest. A magic morning with great light and some cool birds, a great way to start the working day.
