- Can you tell the difference between these two cormorants? Probably not. That's why you need this amazing guide to help you.
The Double-crested Cormorant and Neotropic Cormorant have overlapping ranges. Thus, sometimes you may find it difficult to tell the difference between the two, since they look similar at first glance. I will go over the basic field markings of each bird that will allow you to distinguish these two amazing birds. Наука
Thanks for all the information!!!
You are welcome. Hope it helps you ID cormorants!
I have taken an image of the 'Neotropic Cormorant' here in Denmark, I think it's the only variant in this part of Scandinavia. But there's a lot of them, and they shit white guano left, right and centre. My bird shows an almost surrealistic head and beak profile with raised feathers where the head and the neck meets - as if it is alert.
Are you sure you're not talking about the Great Cormorant? Neotropic Cormorant is mostly a Central and South American bird.
@@WildEarthPhoto No, I am actually talking about the Great Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo), thank you for the correction. I had to check with my photo description.
Now be sure to keep the Neotropic guy down south ;O) The great one is sufficient here, it shits parts of the forest into white ghost trees, and it is not liked very much by the fishermen for stealing their catch. Now I have to ask a bird expert how many more cormorants exist than the three mentioned here?
@Eigil_Skovgaard: A respectable number, 40, and many of them are found near oceans.
