Little Black Cormorant

 Little Black Cormorant...



When: The very descriptively named Little Black Cormorants may be seen around the lake throughout the year. 

In summer, these fellas can often be seen in groups of up to around twenty. They dive around and hunt through the shallows of the lake, as can be seen in this video below.

Other shore birds like pelicans, egrets and herons often shadow the cormorant pack, hoping to get in on the feeding action. 





You tend to see individuals and smaller groups during the colder months.
