A Cormorant Strolling Down the Beach

We went down to the ocean at the end of the day, just to watch the Sun go down.  And we did watch that, and we photographed different people on the beach and the sunset.  And then this Cormorant walked down the beach very slowly.  He seemed to be OK, but he was moving so slowly.  We wondered if the bird was not well.  A number of people saw the bird walking and moved closer so they could photograph it.  They kept a respectable distance, and the Cormorant did not seem frightened by the people.  Eventually he continued to walk away from us and down the beach.  Hope the bird is OK
