Good ID job, Winston. If you were close to home then it's a double-crested cormorant
 Nice pics, too!

Oh Wow! I don't know what kind of bird the little guy is but your pictures are absolutely stunning Winston! Looks like he's perched around a sheet of glass. Very pretty and tranquil.

I always want to call them double-breasted cormorants... Double-breasted, you know...like the suit.
 Sigh...but that just wouldn't make sense for a bird
