Cormorant on Monnow Weir
Cormorant on Monnow Weir
Phalacrocorax carbo - the large and conspicuous cormorant has an almost prehistoric appearance with its long pterodactyl-like neck. It is often seen like this, standing with wings held out to dry. They are supreme fishers which can bring them into conflict with anglers. The weir stands downstream of Monnow Bridge.
