Great job!! Frustrating that people leave that stuff around!! Looks to be happily paddling away!
thank you jgorneau and Satyen, i think anyone would have done the same!
Satyen thanks again for the suggestion!
Awesome work Nuwan. I think it is a little cormorant.
Great job Nuwan, helping the wildlife one step at a time! Thanks for saving such a beautiful creature!
