Cormorant93 viewsI noticed this Cormorant was ringed, so I brought the photo to the attention of Pete Marsh of LDBWS, a few emails later I was advised the Cormorant was "ringed as Pullus, Puffin Island, Anglesey 13/07/2008". Knowing something about the history of the bird makes what was otherwise just a record shot much more interesting.

Lesser Weever Fish - Echiichthys vipera93 viewsLesser Weever Fish are common in all UK waters, they have spines laced with venom and hide in the sand in shallow water. The spines and venom of a Weever fish are purely defensive and not used for catching prey, but if an unsuspecting bather treads on one the spines deliver a venom that can cause excruciating pain.

Whooper Swan93 viewstime for a firm hand. With the swan restrained she checked it's wings for breaks, the Swan was trying to flap both wings so she concluded it was unlikely it had a broken wing. Apparently they sometimes think roads are rivers & land on them by mistake, stunning themselves, which is maybe what happened to this bird.
