I've seen 'em around Shelley Lake in Raleigh, NC.

We're about 120 miles inland  - figuring from the closest beach. I don't 
know how big Shelley Lake is in square footage or whatever, but the 
green-way path that runs around the lake is exactly 2 miles long.

In addition to the occasional cormorant, I've seen lots of Canadian 
geese, various kinds of wild ducks, great egrets, great blue herons and 
even a swan there.

Hey, just work through the spectrum:

Yellow
Green
Blue 
Indigo 
Violet
UV (Beach Pictures)
X-Rays (But you have to break something)

We could even have some Microwave pictures up front.

The remaining month could be something random Macro topic like "Unusual

Just getting this stuff out of my system before the summer students

The PUG is supposed to be as inclusive a gallery as possible. This means 
that themes should be doable with fairly basic equipment, and that the 
subject shouldn't be exclusive to certain parts of the world.
My understanding is that cormorants are a seaside dwelling creature, 
therefore out of reach of people who don't live near large bodies of 
water...
