A cormorant was observed in White Mountain. See also recent report from Golovin.
The cormorants moved in when the peregrins did not return this year. "We believe (they did not return) because of the bird flu."
"This is the first time in our lives that we have seen a cormorant in Kotzebue Sound."
Double-crested cormorants have been observed in the St Lawrence River region, with record-breaking numbers, in recent years.
