This young cormorant<https://picasaweb.google.com/106830005911633082070/MostRecent#5761032359091169570>loves this perch, out among the tall grass that remains as the lake fills up. I spotted it on my morning walk, then hoped it would wait for me while I ran home to get the camera. The light wasn't as good when I returned, but the bird was still there so I'm not complaining! Also along the lake path were at least two bluebird fledglings. I haven't seen much in the sanctuary except a couple parulas the last few days, in the trees between the overlooks. Virginia S
