I found 85 or so of them on my pond a few yrs ago. As they flew off I counted them by doing 5-10-15 etc. I found 200+- TFS dead and floating along with two 14" Hsb. All of them had been driven back into a corner of the pond. I have been at war with them every year since.
Zep, if I had a blow up doll, I would buy or build some type of boat, something that does not have to be drained when it rained. or add a battery and bilge pump to a boat, set the doll in it and anchor it out in the middle of the pond. Wave action might keep it moving and maybe keep all the cormorants away. Sometimes they just don't want to leave and will fly from one end of the pond to the other end when disturbed. I now have something that will reach out and touch them.
