G'day Kim
About 2 months ago we were also in Kingston SE and I saw 16 bobbing up and
down between the jetty and the boat ramp. Like you, I thought it was very
strange at the time, but Pizzey and Knight assured me they are occasionally
seen in the sea. I subsequently saw a couple of them in the marina at Robe.
There were also 68 Pied Cormorants hauled out on the heaps of kelp. At
least they *were *hauled out: as soon as I got within about 100m they all
went and sat in the water with the Musk Duck.
