- Comments: "Continuing bird first seen by Tom Edell. Small cormorant, barely visible white where the bill meets the head, the bill is smaller in appearance than a DCCO. Rather 'tattered' in appearance. In Sycamore up the creek preening, then took a nap. Unfazed by loud rap music coming from nearby warehouse. Observed with a pair of Hooded Orioles also perched in the tree."
