A double-crested cormorant holds up its wings to dry. Unlike other seabirds, they don’t have waterproof feathers. With no air bubbles in their feathers to slow them down, waterlogged cormorants can dive faster and deeper for food!

This Double-crested Cormorant was kind enough to fly past me at surface level while I was sitting in my boat with camera in hand. How thoughtful!

We watched a cormorant try to swallow a HUGE catfish for about 15 min this morning. He kept dropping it then diving and picking it back up. Trying it headfirst, sideways, wetting it. We all were like no way he’s gonna get that thing down his gullet. He finally gave up.
