SF2 - Stealing (Phalacrocorax punctatus)

... but then the shag trundled off with the twig still in its bill, heading up-cliff towards a cave - rather a prime building site, I imagine. So I guess the bird was stealing after all. Serves the other shags right, I suppose, for not keeping one of the pair on guard duty during the building phase.
