Cormorant in a crucifix stance on the coast of Deauville. Ethologia (Εθολογία)

In one of the two stakes where the cormorants take their breaks every day after hunting for food, today after some time there was only one and in a crucifix stance.

On the question of why they do this, the prevailing theories suggest the stance is an energy saving technique, although our impression, with the sun it had today, is to dry their wings.

In the background we can see the city of Thessaloniki and the Concert Hall (2 buildings). The cormorant stakes are on the Deauville coast
