Pied Cormorant
Phalacrocorax varius
Adult Pied Cormorants live along coasts, estuaries, rivers, and large inland waters across Australasia. They dive beneath the surface to chase fish, crustaceans, and other aquatic prey, swallowing catches whole. After feeding, they often stand with their wings spread to dry their waterlogged feathers.
