Cormorant Party of 12

Easter Sunday we took a little ride up the road …. bringing to mind those iconic “Sunday drives” (and drivers). As we went along, we noticed several apparent gatherings evident by the number of cars in the driveway.  It’s nice to see get -togethers like these and imagine the family and friends gathering around a meal to celebrate the holiday.

Here’s a little gathering we came upon in Essex and I like to imagine it was a little bit like the other ones we saw along the way.  It does not appear that anyone has gotten out of hand just yet like your crazy uncle might do at holiday events.

I believe these are Double Crested Cormorants.  One guy seems to be wondering who invited us to the party.

Another sure sign of spring!
