Apparent Neotropic
Cormorant. I don't know if the video grabs can rule out a hybrid. More
size comparisons at bottom of page. The bird showed a very acute angle
to the rear of the gular pouch, and no orange on the lores. Pouch was
yellow-orange, not as bright as on the Double-crests. Scapular feathers
were more elongated and pointy than on immature Double-crests.
