If you want to see how much just one cormorant can eat check out these pictures:
Even though that's a lot for one bird if you put it in perspective the average angler would take home more pounds of fish if he could.
Same goes for people that whine about coyotes and their predation on deer. We harvest a lot more deer than coyotes (and most of us don't need to harvest a deer or starve), but for some reason that bad, bad, coyote needs to die!
That said, these birds would be devastating to a small fish community like a pond. I'd run them off immediately!
