The Cormorant

A sea-bird, purely and simply, and dwelling in the crevasses of steep cliffs, the cormorant's chief prey is fish. Consequently, it is an expert angler and whenever a fish nears the surface of the water, the cormorant is waiting for it. The cormorant immerses its head and in the twinkling of an eye the fish is captured. Fishermen use these birds to help increase their daily catch. The men fasten a strap on the neck of the cormorant and the bird, after catching the fish, is unable to swallow. When its neck is full of fish the cormorant returns to its master and leaves the fish at his feet, then goes back for more.
