While sitting in the boat fishing this morning, I was amused to watch two
Pelicans harassing two Great Cormorants, trying to make them drop their
catch of small fish. The Cormorants were forced to dive to escape, but as
soon as they surfaced again, the Pelicans were right on to them again. They
kept this up until the Cormorants managed to swallow their breakfast and
take off. Duncan Fraser.
