A bit less well known, the Brandt's Cormorant!
Tumblr media
Perhaps a bit debatable to be put on this blog, the Brandt's Cormorant (Phalacrocorax penicillatus) is a seabird with shiny, weakly iridescent (perhaps even just glossy/shiny, but that's for you to decide and not why it's on here) feathers and a patch of blue, shiny skin (?) on its neck that's used to attract a mate. Also, its scientific name is from its quills that appear on its back during mating season. Its courting ritual is also kind of elaborate if not also kind of silly. It bends its neck backward, almost as if it does not have bones there and flares up its wings, exposing the blue patch. Look it up!

Brandt's Cormorants Prophecy And Symbolism
The Following Channel is from higher powers, Divine, the ancestral plane and is prophetic through Quornesha S. Lemon|
Whether the Brandts Cormorants appears in dreams, visions, waking life, or synchronicities, it is a sign and message that sometimes, people, negative people come into your life thinking they’re here to destroy you. And because of their long line of tormenting history, the jig is up. Your anointing has put heaven on notice. So. every negative thing that has been weighing you down will now go with them.
Because of what they did to you. justice for everyone before you that they put their mouth and hands towards, is coming against them. Including what they thought they did to you. Until they do what they said they were going to do, and even if you don't want it. Trouble will follow them. You're coming into a season where everything that comes against you will transmute into success, prosperity, blessings, and joy. You are not to worry about how you will eat, what you will wear, where you will live, what you will drive.
Updates to your income and living arrangements, as well as your family life, are coming. Good things can and will happen to you. Pay close attention to the words you allow into your atmosphere. Brandt’s Cormorants is a sign and prophecy that you are about to be lifted up. If there’s an idea or goal that you’ve been longing to achieve, it will manifest now. The Brandt’s Cormorant is a reminder that even though something or someone has left your life, the best is still yet to come. Whatever is ending, just allow it. As It is meant to end. You will experience relief from the storms and pressures of life. Get ready, big things are
This message isn't, obviously resonant with all whose paths it crosses, as perhaps you may encounter someone of this vernacular, mastery or skill. Therefore, it is a sign from the universe that you're meant to work with such a person. 
Need further clarity or your own queries answered? Book your own reading as my schedule is full and I do not guarantee a reply on social media regarding this post.
If this is not you, then it is time to get clear to rejoin your tribe or the rest of the world of infinite beings. It's time to bring your light to the forefront. However, if you aren't able to invoke, heal or otherwise on your own, call on the assistance of shamans, healers, intuitive people, etc. to assist you. This synchronicity can possibly have specific meanings for you, it's time to get insight.

La Jolla, California, the Jewel of the West Coast
La Jolla, California, the Jewel of the West Coast
After a long day of hiking in Poway, my friends and I decided to spend the rest of the afternoon in La Jolla, an exclusive, upscale suburb of San Diego.   La Jolla means “the Jewel” in Spanish which is befitting its name with perfect weather year around, high end fashion boutiques, picturesque coastal bluffs and a scenic seaside. My favorite hangout is La Jolla Cove, a sandy beach inlet with…

Day 5 of family vacation
Today was more eventful!
Wife and I got up comparatively early and managed to leave around 10:30am (only 10 minutes later than planned!), arriving on time for our electric catamaran tour of Elkhorn Slough. It was fabulous. We saw sea lions, harbor seals, loads of birds, and dozens of sea otters, including three otter pups with their mothers! They were so cute! Several of the otters were eating, and others were napping on the surface (in groups). We even spotted a few otters who had gone ashore!
Birdwise, it was also a major success: even aside from lots of favorites, I saw 3 birds I'd never seen before! These included Brandt's cormorants (hundreds of them, probably), common loons, and a common murre. The murre was interesting because when I saw it, an unfamiliar bird I had never identified, the word "murre" popped into my head. I have no idea how I knew! But I did check with the naturalist on board to make sure; she identified the cormorants (we saw all 3 of the species we get around here) and the loons as well. Other birds I've seen before, but not recently, included a couple of American avocets (this might be the first time I've ever seen them not in breeding plumage) and a black-necked stilt, as well as some Forster's terns. And there were several brown pelicans diving into the slough. Interestingly, a lot of the brown pelicans we've seen since arriving here are already in their breeding plumage!
It was really a great way to spend 1.5 hours.
Afterwards, Wife wanted seafood for lunch, so we drove to Castroville to a restaurant she wanted to try. Afterwards, of course, we had to visit the Giant Artichoke.
We came home and had some downtime before Best Friend arrived with her husband and Fake Nephew, who is now 14 (how?!). It was nice to see them, though Fake Nephew really wanted to play board games while Best Friend and I wanted to catch up. But at various points different family members played Ricochet Robot with him, and sometimes he joined the conversation. Our dinner delivery didn't arrive until about 8:40--much later than expected--by which time we were all famished despite having snacked. But afterwards, Fake Nephew actually loaded the dishwasher! We will see them again tomorrow, which is our last day here.
The other thing is that the snowy plover banding people wrote back! Most of the birds whose bands I managed to record had been banded as adults, mostly at nearby beaches, one on this same beach. But one was a juvenile banded as a chick just this past summer! and one had been banded as an adult 9.5 years ago!

Next project, a Brandt's Cormorant. Saw the bright blue and I had to.
Tho after I finish these bits of it's face I'm going to have to pause until I can get to the craft store after the holiday. I thought I had the right colors for the body but the longer I stare the more I realize it's not. quite. right.

Brandt’s cormorants on Alcatraz 
Did you know there’s a cormorant breeding colony that lives on Alcatraz? The island is a popular nesting site for Brandt’s, double-crested, and pelagic cormorants. In 2021, the National Park Service counted counted 3,301 breeding pairs!! Judging by the blue throat patch, these ones are Brandt’s cormorants.
