Some water birds like cormorants never seem to fly over land. They'll hug the shoreline but never venture more than a dozen yards in. They must view land the way we view water. Exceptional crossing territory.

Going for spear mouth over baggage space Anhinga might be even better (snakebird). Slytherin of birds. Pelicans are kinda hufflepuffy

and a few cormorants had discovered this and they were just diving and eating incessantly just gorging themselves

If you like that sort of thing and ever go back to India, don't miss this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keoladeo_National_Park … ...I lost count of the variety. It's like a costco of waterbirds, each in thousands.

I didn't even know the park was there, I just had some time to kill in Bharatpur on the way to see a solar eclipse in 95 and saw a sign for the park and bike rentals so went on a whim... turned out to be the best wildlife experience I've had to this day.
