Double-crested Cormorant
This morning I walked around my office parking lot, and I found a couple fun birds to photograph.  At Grassy Lake, a Double-Crested Cormorant came in for a landing, and in the trees behind my office a Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher was buzzing around actually posed for me a second.

  1. Double-crested cormorants have shown up in VT, as have eastern phoebes but we are still waiting for most of the other migrants. I love your gnatcatcher shots!
