| Comments : | 2 Adult type and 2cy Putative Continental Cormorants Bray Head Co, Wicklow. Flight shots are not great for the ID of Cormorants, but these birds were rather stricking due to size and gular pouchs.Smaller than breeding and roosting Carbo types present.Not enough is know on the different ranges of Cormorants in europe just yet, so best to not call these 100% "Sinensis". | ||||||||||
