User's notes
The pontoon further away also had a Great Cormorant resting on it. There was no issues between the cormorant and pelican, with both birds snapping at the swooping magpies. Even when the pelican opened its massive beak in a huge yawn close to the cormorant I did not detect any movement from the cormorant.
