Cormorants Perched on Weathered Wooden Post at Dusk

Sunday, April 26th, 2026 at 11:28:37 PM · 2026/Yolo Bypass Wetlands

A pair of cormorants occupy adjacent weathered wooden posts against a clear blue sky, captured at the Yolo Bypass Wetlands. The larger bird on the left stands prominently atop a tall piling, while a second cormorant perches on a lower post to the right. The posts show significant weathering and are connected by what appears to be electrical or cable infrastructure with white insulators. The birds display the characteristic long necks and hooked beaks typical of cormorants, with their dark plumage creating strong silhouettes. The composition emphasizes the vertical lines of the posts against the expansive sky, suggesting a marsh or waterway setting at golden hour.
