In the Guangxi province of China, fisherman use trained cormorants to help them catch fish from the Li river. A noose tied around the birds' necks to stop them swallowing any fish they may catch.

Most animals are more than happy to return to the wild, but we'd understand if you thought that this cormorant has forgotten how to fly! He arrived at the hospital with no major problems, just a bit concussed and very underweight. After filling up on a daily diet of fresh (and expensive) fish, he was ready to return to the wild. However, when Simon tried to release the bird, it seemed he did not want to leave! After two failed attempts, it was third time lucky for this pedestrian cormorant, who didn't seem too happy being called a "donkey", so finally left!

The cormorant is a large water bird with black plumage. It has a wingspan of about 100 centimeters form the Ussuri River region of Siberia and the northern-east region of China fly spend about five months in Kinmen; they do not embark on their return journey to the breeding grounds until April the following year.
The cormorant is equipped with webbed feet, a strong bill, easily wet-able feathers and a special flexible pouch on its throat, making the bird an efficient catcher of fish. Highly gregarious, the cormorants like to feed and roost in large numbers. They also fly in line formations. Every year the entertaining antics and sheer number of these birds attract many visitors, both domestic and abroad, to Kinmen.

Scavengers Feast (from the 2009 full-length album Metazoa)
Music: Cormorant / Lyrics: Arthur von Nagel
A million shells like stones in sand,
The soil painted by severed hands,
(Red)
Locusts breed in a child's skull,
A hallowed tank, rats in its hull,
(All dead)
Wars keep the vultures fed.
Friends and foes, all extinguished:
Mother Nature can't distinguish...
...Between a killer and a priest.
Heroes are the victor's butchers,
All their rapes and all their tortures
Cleansed by rains of gold and years of rot.
The human god mirrors the human brain.
Pray for power and material gain,
So the rich die old, and the poor die shot.
An armed cadaver on a fleshless horse,
Father Time knows no remorse
For rifts of West and East.
So the scavengers feast.
A martyred saint's but a jackal's meal,
And for all man's pride and religious zeal
Both the church and whorehouse burned.
The flies, the ants, the carrion thrive,
Hornets dig a ribcage hive,
And the world, the world still turns.
When all mankind tastes the earth,
Mother Nature will give birth
To another king of beasts.
And still the scavengers feast.

While SCUBA diving at Pelican Rocks off of Cabo San Lucas, a Brandt's Cormorant (Phalacrocorax penicillatus) repeatedly returned to the same area to catch fish. I waited for it to return and was lucky enough to film it catching a coral hawkfish (in slow motion). I was at around 15 meters deep, but cormorants have been recorded to at least 45 meters. While not being the most graceful fliers, they are fantastic underwater and right at home patrolling the reef for a meal.

Fishing using cormorants is an ancient Chinese tradition that is still practiced today. A string is tied around the bird's neck and they are sent out into the water to catch fish. They cannot swallow the fish and they return with it to the fisherman. Read more about Chinese culture at http://thechinachronicle.com/culture/.

Cormorant
Phalacrocoracidae is a family of some 40 species of aquatic birds commonly known as cormorants and shags. Several different classifications of the family have been proposed recently, and the number of genera is disputed. There is no consistent distinction between "cormorants" and "shags", and these appellations have been assigned to different species randomly.
Cormorants and shags are medium-to-large birds, with body weight in the range of 0.35–5 kilograms (0.77–11.02 lb) and wing span of 45–100 centimetres (18–39 in). The majority of species have dark feathers. The bill is long, thin and hooked. Their feet have webbing between all four toes. All species are fish-eaters, catching the prey by diving from the surface. They are excellent divers, and under water they propel themselves with their feet with help from their wings; some cormorant species have been found to dive as deep as 45 metres. They have relatively short wings due to their need for economical movement underwater, and consequently have the highest flight costs of any bird.

Scavengers Feast (from the 2009 full-length album Metazoa)
Music: Cormorant / Lyrics: Arthur von Nagel
A million shells like stones in sand,
The soil painted by severed hands,
(Red)
Locusts breed in a child's skull,
A hallowed tank, rats in its hull,
(All dead)
Wars keep the vultures fed.
Friends and foes, all extinguished:
Mother Nature can't distinguish...
...Between a killer and a priest.
Heroes are the victor's butchers,
All their rapes and all their tortures
Cleansed by rains of gold and years of rot.
The human god mirrors the human brain.
Pray for power and material gain,
So the rich die old, and the poor die shot.
An armed cadaver on a fleshless horse,
Father Time knows no remorse
For rifts of West and East.
So the scavengers feast.
A martyred saint's but a jackal's meal,
And for all man's pride and religious zeal
Both the church and whorehouse burned.
The flies, the ants, the carrion thrive,
Hornets dig a ribcage hive,
And the world, the world still turns.
When all mankind tastes the earth,
Mother Nature will give birth
To another king of beasts.
And still the scavengers feast.

While SCUBA diving at Pelican Rocks off of Cabo San Lucas, a Brandt's Cormorant (Phalacrocorax penicillatus) repeatedly returned to the same area to catch fish. I waited for it to return and was lucky enough to film it catching a coral hawkfish (in slow motion). I was at around 15 meters deep, but cormorants have been recorded to at least 45 meters. While not being the most graceful fliers, they are fantastic underwater and right at home patrolling the reef for a meal.

Hole In The Sea
Last night, I watched the moon drink the tides
'Til a whale rose from the hole in the sea.
She breathed in the clouds like an opium ride,
Smiled, and devoured me.
My flesh had melted when my mind awoke
To feel her tail tear open the sky.
Fins punctured cities, bled sulfur and smoke;
I wept as the last scream died.
She spat my soul onto a planet of dust.
My thoughts dissolved into the grain.
Whale became woman, the sun gazed with lust;
He took her, and fathered the rain.
From this coupling my shell grew green.
Rainforests sprung from my skin and soil.
Mountains spawned cells, apes & All-In-Between,
And I understood.
I am this mortal coil.
