Pelagic Cormorant
Phalacrocorax
pelagicus
Nests commonly in northern Puget Sound and throughout San Juan Islands on rocky cliffs, but only two "confirmed" nesting locations for our area—on Smith/Minor Islands and in Bremerton. Latter colony, on Warren Avenue Bridge across Port Washington Narrows, continues to be active despite recent bridge-painting project. Most recent estimate (2003) of 200 nests.
