Cormorants are fisheaters. As such, they are found pretty much wherever there is sea and shore.Cormorants nest in trees, on the ground, or in rocky areas like cliffs. Their eggs are a chalky blue color, and they typically have 2-4 at a time. Usually, only one brood is born per year.
One very interesting aspect of the cormorant is that it does not have natural waterproofing for it's wings. The bird pictured here is drying it's wings after being in water by spreading them out.
