Деталі спостереження
Bird observed standing on a log in pond #1 at a distance of 100 yards or so with spotting scope, in full sun coming from behind me. It was next to an American Coot, and appeared maybe 1.5 times the size of the coot. It was clearly a cormorant, based on general body shape, slightly hooked bill, and dark overall coloration. Unlike immature Double-Crested Cormorants, the neck and chest of this bird were overall dark brownish rather than pale. The posterior edge of the gape forms a sharp "v" pointing backward, with little downward extension of the yellow-orange color. The lores was entirely dark with no orange. The orange of the bill does not touch the eye. There is a small white edging at the very posterior point of the mouth. The tail appears proportionally quite long in comparison with that of a Double-Crested Cormorant. This is a continuing bird at this location, first observed by Chris Barrigar on April 29, and observed later on the afternoon of May 1 by Mark Haas.
