Proposing a hunt for any bird species, particularly colonial nesting species, during the breeding bird season will impact other species that Cormorants nest alongside (e.g., Great Blue Heron, Great Egret, Black-crowned Night-Herons).
My concern is that having this hunt, which is open during the nesting season, will impact not just Cormorants but many other species, many of which are sensitive to humans and may be negatively impacted by this hunt.
The dates that this hunt is open should NOT occur during the breeding bird season.
