from what I can see he is blackish on top and white on the bottom. He has a little white around his eyes and rarely is ontop of the water.. Only comes up to get air then is back down again. He has a very long neck too..
He absolutely is not a merganser.. I am 100% sure it is a cormorant. I hope he leaves soon!
Mostly geese are stopping in every morning.. I really dont mind them althogh I dont want them 24/7...
I have a very healthy shiner population that made it through winter.. Looks like most of the fatheads are gone tho..
My son caught a shiner while BG fishing the other night.. it had to be 6"+ long...
