April? I thought you left already

April is now toddling off into the past, never to be seen again or at least not for another eleven months depending on your interpretation (or remaining perpetually according to yet another,) and so we arrive at the end of the month abstract. Which looks amazingly like thus:

double-crested cormorant Nannopterum auritum flapping in water just after sunset
The sunset didn’t perform all that well this day, but the double-crested cormorant (Nannopterum auritum) that came in to land in the dwindling light worked well enough for me, gaining some surreality just from the condition of the water – most poses wouldn’t have worked as well, so the timing was key here, but I’ll only take partial credit for that, having fired off a sequence of frames as it took place. Ink on bronze – this was my art school final project. It got a C- but I passed.
