Little Pied Cormorant

  Little Pied Cormorants...



These guys are keen waterway hunters.


When: Little Pied Cormorants can be seen all year round.


Unlike Little Black Cormorants who hunt in packs
Little Pied Cormorants are usually pretty solitary. 



They're either drying themselves...


Perched in a tree, resting to be ready for the next hunt... Or scooting in and under the waters looking for a feed.



Little Pied Cormorants breed in colonies but I haven't seen any around here.




Little Pied Cormorants are one of Australia's most common waterbirds, so you'll usually spot one or two on most days.
