The presented pictures of the little pied cormorant were taken in Australia and New Zealand. The little pied cormorant is the smallest representative of its family. It is a common species in Australia, but it is also found north of Australia in Indonesia and New Guinea as well as in the south east – New Zealand. The little pied cormorant measures up to 60 centimeters, while the Great Cormorant occurring in Poland, reaches up to one meter. An interesting thing is that the little pied cormorant did not allow me to approach it the way other Australian birds did, for example the white-faced heron. A few pictures presented here were taken almost without framing. Naturally, the process of approaching lasted several dozen minutes, but it was worth it. In our conditions an attempt to approach a grey heron or a cormorant seems ridiculous and doomed to failure. This is the third cormorant species in my gallery. I invite you to take a look…
