Hi there! Love this piece, thank you for covering the topic! Just a note - the 'angled glass' suggestion was dropped from best practices a few years ago because it's not broadly effective. Thank you for making this an accessible topic for folks!!

Fun fact, In Japan, There's, a traditional fishing technique in which fishermen use trained cormorants to catch fish in rivers. You might think it's abuse to the cormorants, but luckily it's not, The cormorants (Usually Great Cormorants) are very well taken care of and those that are sick are usually not brought to fishing trips and are usually to back full health in a few days thanks to this. By the way, Any chance in Birdorable Bonanza 2025 you can add it? (I know it has nothing to do with the Double-crested Cormorant, but I thought it might help you)
