Hi again, everyone:
I've been seeing lots of Double-crested Cormorants flying over Milwaukee County
recently.
The most impressive sighting was on Saturday evening, when two V-shaped flocks,
each containing at least 100 cormorants, passed over the east side of
Milwaukee. I saw another flock, containing 40-50 cormorants and also
northbound, on Sunday evening. Yet another north-flying flock made me look up
from my daughter's soccer game this afternoon.
I know cormorants migrate mid-April to mid-May, but I was surprised to see such
large flocks -- and on three straight days!
