So are we! She’s really completely healed at this point. Since this post she’s taken a 13 mile hike and a 40 mile bike ride.

I'm impressed that you could still lay your hands on those coupons six weeks later. So organized!

And if you were still in Italia that's about how much it would be for a fresh one. :^)

Nice find! The colors make it blend in with plants so well...

I think she missed a few, but it must be close because I came up with 91. And this is probably less than a fifth of the total, because presumably they’re clustered on the far side too. So, maybe 400-500? Sounds like a large gathering to me, but I haven’t found anything to indicate whether that’s unusually large.

I did find what a group of cormorants is called though. Multiple terms are used, but my favorite is a gulp. I’d guess that 400 of them constitutes a big gulp.

Really. It’s almost translucent, but for the spectacular coloring at either end.

Dodie did a really quick count and came out with an estimate of 85, could sometimes not tell the difference between a bird and a shadow. What would a really large group of Cormorants be called, one wonders?

Too complicated! The eyes thing is easier. I’ll never forget that.

Aspens are not really coastal trees, they seem to prefer the higher elevations. Their bark is cool, and can photosynthesize even during the winter, hence the greenish cast.
