Question of the day: what do you get when you put a dead deer in a
field, add 4 BALD EAGLES, 20+ TURKEY VULTURES, 12 RAVENS and 5
BLACK-BILLED MAGPIES. Answer: a very quick snack. This was the scenario
out on C.R. 15 west of Aitkin yesterday. The entire deer was gone in
about an hour -- meat, fur and bones. URP!!!...Warren Nelson

and this from Natural History magazine about cormorants:

This was mentioned in a discussion on the Illinois list; no one else in
Ohio seems to have an opinion they want to share, except for the DOW
flacks who send their info to the rod & gun mags.
