Linlithgow and Beecraigs
Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) drying its wings on its island roost site, Linlithgow Loch. Their plumage is not waterproof, so bubbles of air don't get trapped beneath their feathers. This allows them to dive deeper to catch their fishy prey, but means that when they come up, they need to dry out their feathers to keep themselves warm.
