DEPOE BAY, OR - - There are plenty of photo stops as we wander along the Oregon Coast. The Pelagic cormorant pair (top) sport purple breeding plumage and a very cozy nest in the side of a rock cliff jutting out into the Pacific.
Look closely at the bottom photo. We're talking back to back, belly to belly and wing to wing. The over crowding of Pacific Gulls, cormorants and a few others thrown in during nesting season it tough enough. It also produces a ready made buffet for opportunistic predators like Golden Eagles and vultures. Click on the link to Lydia's blog to see what one golden eagle had for a meal.
