Just one or two Cormorants......

On the lake complex at Chichester there's a lake thats actually privately owned, so is out of bounds to members of the public. So obviously we had to have a look.
The lake, which is called "New Lake" is a huge body of water, where as i've previously stated is private, and there's no fishing allowed, unless of course you're a Cormorant.
From the bank we were stood on we could see about a dozen trees dotted around the lake in which there were a large number of Cormorants.
Apart from the numbers of birds in the trees, there were Cormorants as far as the eye could see paddling about and feeding on the water.

And i bet none of them had a license for fishing........
