Cormorants and Australian Darter

Mainland Australia has five cormorants, four of which are pretty widespread.



Here are three of them: Little Black, Great and Pied







The same three airborne.



This is the fourth widespread spcies - Little Pied.





The fifth, Black-faced Cormorant, is restricted to the south eastern corner.



Not a raptor ... an Australian Darter!
