21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Team work. A harbor seal and two cormorants working together to fish.

Waiting for a rare bird for our area to show up ,my attention was drawn to a two Double-crested Cormorants swimming in the lagoon. They were fishing, but I noticed something something swimming beside them. Looking through my telephoto lens I could see a harbor seal swimming beside them as they all three looked for unwary fish to catch!
