KKANDTS C■^JH:.:0KA^1 (Phalacrocorax penicillatus About .» Life-size. LONG-WINGED SWIMMERS S3 bills are strong and decidedly hooked; this assists them inholding their prey. Unlike the gannets, cormorants do notdive from the air, but from the water or a low perch. On the barren islands of Devils Lake, North Dakota,the double-crested connorant still nests in company withthe ring-billed and herring gulls, Canada goose and whitepelican. These islands are a paradise for the bird student.On approaching these densely populated areas the warycormorants are the first to leave their nests. No sooner dothey vacate their posts than the thieving gulls descend upontheir nests and destroy their eggs. Cormorants incubate in relays and never vacate theirnests except at the approach of man. In Canada, nestsare frequently constructed in rocky places overlooking thewater. The nests are of sticks, and contain from three tofive chalky eggs with a covering showing faint blue.
