A Double-crested Cormorant in mid-air, banking aggressively in flight as it prepares to land on a rocky outcropping over the sea.
When you realize you only have two minutes before the first meeting of the week! ๐๐จ This Double-crested Cormorant is coming in hot. Because they are heavy-bodied birds, they don't exactly do delicate landings. Brace for impact and let's get this week started! ๐๐ฅ

A Double-crested Cormorant swimming in textured blue water, with its dark body submerged and only its long neck and head visible.
Barely keeping your head above water? For this Double-crested Cormorant, riding low is a feature, not a bug! ๐ป Less waterproofing lets them dive deep, fast. If you feel like you're sinking, you might just be positioned for a deep dive into complex problem-solving. ๐๐ฆ

Today's #BirdOfTheDay prompt is #SteppingOut. This dragon -- I mean #DoubleCrestedCormorant --no, I mean dragon -- is going for a walk on a wire, for some reason.

A #DoubleCrestedCormorant with wings spread. Unlike most water birds, cormorants lack the ability to waterproof their feathers. This helps their diving, but they have to dry their feathers for flying.
