Little Pied Cormorant

Little Pied Cormorant

Back in Port Moresby having checked into my very expensive hotel for an extra night, I wondered if there would be a flight to Brisbane the following day. Rather than worry about this, I made the decision to spend the rest of a warm afternoon back at the Pacific Adventist University. The light was brilliant for photography and I had seen most of the birds on a previous visit so I was able to sit quietly, see what came past and concentrate on the pictures.
