Chris: Terrific action. The burgundy on this bird stands out.
BrianMorin: The adults have a really nice colour. I think I would have given the bird a name other than green because there is very little of that colour on the wings.

Kingston - The Neotropic Cormorant is a provincial rarity that is making an annual appearance in the province in recent years. The species is slowly expanding its range northward from Texas and Louisiana. Note the proportionately longer tail than Double-crested, duller orange skin on the throat and faint white facial marking. The bird is noticeably smaller than its cousin.
