Observation details
Large number along the shores of the Kopački Lake. Seen with park biologist on boat tour. Distinguished from P. carbo by smaller size. Those seen up close were seen to have notably shorter bills, and lacking the more extensive bare parts on the face that P. carbo has. The large numbers were mostly seen in sizeable flocks in the reeds surrounding Kopački Lake. These flocks were seen to be all of the small size, this concluded to consist of all C.pygmaeus. Additional small groups of them were seen closely along the channel leading to the Lake. These were all seen closely enough to determine by size and bill size to be pygmaeus. The park biologist who was driving the small boat, and who has worked 2 years in the park agreed with the identification.
