Had a couple of hours and just needed to get on the water so I took my 7 year old and we put in at Chester. Found some fish on a rocky bank. Had a few hits, a good one shook off and finally put one in the boat with a squarebill, about 2 lbs.

Also heard a commotion up in the trees and something fell in the water. I trolled over and it was a little bird. I out it on the shore and noticed that they had a sibling that didn’t make it. Hope its mama found it. Can anyone identify it?

Hope your son enjoyed the trip.

He really enjoyed finding the stray beach ball. He also had a couple of hits on a drop shot rig and that got him excited!

Looks like a baby cormorant. Not a good bird to have around.

I would have been pretty torn if I knew it was a cormorant. I got a thing for any kind of animal babies, but cormorants, that’s a stretch!
