Hi Tweeters; I'm brand new on the bulletin board. Just call
me Captain Cormorant. Anybody out there want to communicate
about "Rhinos"? Do the females develop any sign of a
proboscis on their upper mandible?
I,ve noticed that upon approaching these birds from a tour
boat that they would rather dive than fly due to my
intrusion into their feeding area. This experience has been
mainly duringthe summer. Has anyone noted this behavior
during the winter months? Help???Tks
