A few migratory ducks are spending an occasional evening at Lake Nelson. Today, Chris was happy to see a female wood duck by the dock, although the mallards weren't particularly interested in the visitor. A widgeon came by yesterday. Neither stayed long, but the loon has been here more than a week.

Cormorant Fishing

Cormorant with Fish 

Cormorants 


Chris saw a cormorant struggling with a fish that was too large for it. Soon, another came over followed by Mike with the camera.
