Cormorants hunt in large flocks, fishing for shallow water, which makes catching fish easier for the cormorant.

Great Egrets, Little Egrets, and Grey Herons gratefully take advantage of this to catch a fish.

I've never seen so many Great Egrets in my backyard. I counted over 33. Their numbers are increasing.

Vandaag wel heel veel Grote Zilverreigers in mijn #achtertuin. Ik telde er 33

@BirdsinmyBackyard I’m not a professional birdwatcher by any means but I’ve always been very drawn to birds, both the common and uncommon. And seeing stuff like this gives me a warm fuzzy feeling.
