Double-crested Cormorant
Nicknamed "crow duck", the Double-crested Cormorant is a large, dark bird with a long neck, longish tail, naked orange-yellow throat pouch and slender hooked bill. It flies with a kinked neck, silently, alone or in ragged v-shaped flocks. In spring, adults display either black or whitish bushy feather tufts on either side of the head, earning them their name. The Double-crested Cormorant nests across much of North America, at scattered locations on the Pacific Coast from the Aleutian Islands to Baja California and from the Rocky Mountains east across the northern Great Plains, around the Great Lakes, along the St. Lawrence River, and on the Atlantic coast in Newfoundland, New England, Florida, and Cuba. Some coastal populations are resident, but most northern and interior nesting birds migrate as far south as Mexico and the southeastern U.S.A.
