Feeling yellow, feeling blue

A warm sunny sunset by the sea is clearly there to be enjoyed, being a bird or not.

The kāruhiruhi, as the Māori calls this pied shag cormorant, is a medium sized bird and spread around all of Zealandia and Oz. It is pretty used to humans and allow us to observe it without too much fuzz.

Like this fellow on the shore of Kaikōura, South Island, Aotearoa New Zealand.
