On two consecutive mornings last week I observed six to eight Little Black Cormorants on and around the lakes on my walk to work. The birds took off from one lake and flew to another together, landed on the water surface and proceeded to duck and dive. The birds ducked and dived into the lakes waters in quick succession, coming to the water surface, quickly swallowing what food they caught and diving back under the water. I observed the ‘flock’ duck, dive and swim around the small lake for a few minutes, and in that time the ‘flock’ appeared to circle the lake twice.
After my observation over two days I have looked out for this little ‘flock’ of Little Black Cormorants, but it has not been seen.
