Folks around here call them "Water Turkeys". There is a group of probably 100 or more on the lake right now. I can see them go ashore up the lake from me, but they aren't coming ashore here. I took this image at the park last fall.

I've searched many places all summer hoping to find cormorants out of the water; I see them every day here on the lake but never out of the water. We went to meet family at a restaurant on the lake in a park and to my delight there they were on a huge rock formation. To make it more delightful two of them were doing their courting ritual. I have MANY images of this ritual and I'm going to post a few to create a series. I hope you nature lovers will enjoy them. Cormorants will breed until the August timeframe here. I hope you don't get bored with my cormorant series. Thanks for looking.

Look at his feet; completely off the ground. He's jumping for her.
