I have a really naff cannon zoom lens too which I discovered at my detrement on my recent holiday.! This photo made me smile, though not your usual type of photo. What kind of birds (I'm trying to learn their names) are they?

Cormorants?

Great shot - is it multiple frames, or just a natural procession?

It was just how they lined up on the rock Matt. I was there to take the scenic shot really, but decided to stick in my rubbish Canon zoom to get the shot.

thanks for the id on the birds - I wouldn't have a clue tbh .....
