  2. Great Cormorant Colony

    Great Cormorants are the largest cormorant in Australia and are also found in other parts of the world.

    They live at places of permanent freshwater as well as coastal inlets and estuaries.

    These birds can often be seen diving to catch fish then later perched somewhere with their wings outstretched to dry.

    I happened to accidentally come across a small colony of great cormorants when taking a wander around Queechy Lake in Launceston, Tasmania. There were chicks in nests on a little island in the lake which was surprising seeing as it was the middle of May and almost the end of autumn.

    Here are a couple of photos of Queechy Lake. You can see the little island full of dead trees and shrubs.

    Here’s a photo of the nests.

    And here are some photos of the chicks.

    And finally, here’s a video of the chicks being fed.

    Until next time,

    Return of takahē – large, flightless bird – to alpine slopes of the South Island marks a conservation victory in New Zealand. I met one of these contenders for Bird of the Year today at the Zealandia nature conservatory. #Takahe #birdlife #nzpol #biodiversity #conservation

    Seit der Wiedereinwanderung des Wolfs ist es um den Luchs in der Schweiz still geworden. Rund 250 Exemplare der scheuen Grosskatze durchstreifen Berg- und Jurawälder. Zwar fordern Strassenverkehr und ILLEGALE TÖTUNGEN weiterhin ihren Tribut, doch die einst ausgerottete Art scheint sich gut zu entwickeln.
    Der Schein trügt leider........
