Double-crested Cormorants float low on the surface of water and dive to catch small fish. After fishing, they stand on docks, rocks, and tree limbs with wings spread open to dry. In flight, they often travel in V-shaped flocks that shift and reform as the birds alternate bursts of choppy flapping with short glides.

This bird may have migrated here for the winter this the first time I have ever seen it. I saw it really early this morning sorry the picture is not real clear I was shooting into the sun.
