Above the Tempest
Migrating Cormorants fly above stormy seas...
I live next to Lake Michigan and though it can get very rough and resemble the water above, this was a composite image. The Cormorants were captured by me a couple days ago as they were passing northward by the thousands. The waves were added from my favorite online editor, picmonkey.com...
While Lake Michigan is considered the most dangerous of the five Great Lakes due to the most loss of life through the years, the highest waves ever recorded were on Lake Superior on October 24, 2017, and they were 29 feet high!
Still, Lake Michigan is often very rough and 23 foot high waves were recorded in September of 2011.
The Lake is incredibly beautiful, but it can be terribly dangerous and must be respected.
