Mr. Barnett
Thank you for reporting the Cormorants at U of R lake. They made a year round
presence at Canterbury lake off Pump Road starting 3 or 4 years ago.Cormorants
have made a great comeback in less than 20 years. In the early 1990's they were
only a few at the Jamestown Ferry dock. They are now year round even on Lake
Robinson in Rockbridge County (the county around Lexington VA) I have started
to keep track of the ponds and lakes a mile or more from the rivers that do not
connect to a river or only connect to a river by a mile or more of creek and
contain Cormorants. I have the following locations so far by personal
observation or listserve reports:What other inland locations can we add?
Rockwood Park Chesterfield
Swift Creek Reservoir Chesterfield
Harrison Lake Charles City
Canterbury Lake Henrico
Tuckahoe Creek Route 6 vicinity Goochland/Henrico
Curles Neck inland former gravel mine ponds Henrico
Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens Henrico
U of R lake Henrico
