Profile of an Adult Double-Crested Cormorant Ceramic Tile

Use this elegant, wildlife-themed tile to protect delicate surfaces, tables, and countertops from hot pots, or as accent pieces for the dining room, kitchen, or anywhere else in the home! A chance meeting with an adult Double-Crested Cormorant successfully fishing near the shore at Deering Island Park gave me a great opportunity to study the formative breeding white crest, turquoise eye, and yellow face patch of this prehistoric-looking waterbird ... and, with a nice cut of sushi in its beak, discover the light blue mouth lining. Photographed in mid-May 2017. Based on the original photography of W.H. Sim. All Rights Reserved. See more at zazzle.com/walkswithnature
