The Big Ass Year

As Earth, the tiny planet many call home, hurtles through the depths of space, forever circling Ogma Sunface, Crumby's Big Ass Year continues.  But for Crumby, a Big Ass Year is frought with stress.  Like back on January 12, Crumby recorded the olivaceous cormorant as the 85th species of his Big Ass Year.   Yes.  He espied twain of those particular cormorants being chased down the Colorado River by a humanoid in a kayak.  Mercy!

But then Crumby, though he espied high and low, could find no other references to olivaceous,  or for that matter,  neotropical cormorants, at this nonce, at this time, in these parts.  Nevertheless, Crumby knew that the WG had not deceived him.  No.  Those twain cormorants flyiing downriver with the other cormorants were olivaceous and no other. 

So Crumby set about documenting his olivaceous cormorants.  And today, that documentation, fruited or, bore fruit, or was actually documented.

Plus,  Crumby also documented the black-crowned night-heron.  Yes.  Mass quantities, maybe six ,  of those stygian herons were espied today, including this one.

Last week at the same location, below Longhorn Dam,  there were migratory water pipits, ca 100,  and swarms of  migratory swallows.  Goodness!
