That's a lot of shags. They go along with all the sea lions. For some reason fish and wildlife organizations have decided they should be given special breeding and nesting areas that are more protected. kind of nuts since they're also trying to increase the number of salmon and trout.

I wonder if Tippi Hedren and Rod Taylor would have enjoyed seeing that huge flock of cormorants?  ;)

If there's anything that smells worse than shag (cormorant) poop I don't want to know what it is. Oh, wait, pelicans. Just as bad and a lot more of it.

Ethyl Mercaptan.

It’s the chemical they use to give odor to certain gasses, like propane. Years ago I used to work in an oil refinery and on occasion we worked with this stuff. To say it’s unpleasant is an understatement.

For some reason two of your lines had me cracking up! "I have to paddle through this to get home" and "Never has one man created so much turmoil"!

Thanks, lol.
