Nature's partnership!
Do you know cormorants are the best hunting partners for the brown pelicans? Yes they are. Cormorants love to hunt for fish as a group – twenty sometimes over a hundred. They stir up the fish when they dive under the water. The pelicans love to follow these cormorants so they can dive bomb the fish when they come close to surface.
