The Double-Crested Cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus), with its distinctive orange throat and blue eyes, is a seabird whose habitat includes rivers and lakes as well as in coastal areas.  It is widely distributed across North America, from the Aleutian Islands in Alaska down to Florida and Mexico.  This male cormorant was photographed standing with his wings spread on the bank of Walnut Canyon Lakes in Flagstaff, Arizona, USA.

A Pygmy Cormorant (Microcarbo pygmaeus) perches on a bare branch with its wings fully spread, basking in the sunlight to dry its feathers. The bird’s glossy black plumage contrasts against the soft-focus natural background, creating a striking wildlife moment. This characteristic pose highlights the cormorant’s adaptation to aquatic life, emphasizing its need to dry its non-waterproof feathers after diving for fish. The intricate details of the wings and the dynamic posture showcase the beauty of this small yet resilient waterbird.
The little black cormorant is a small cormorant measuring 60–65 cm (23.5–25.5 in) with all black plumage. The back has a greenish sheen.  Males and females are identical in plumage. The long slender bill is grey, and legs and feet black. The iris of the adult is green and the juvenile brown. Immature birds have brown and black plumage.
Phalacrocorax carbo
Unlike its similar seagoing cousins, the Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) can thrive in an arid climate as long as there are ponds or wetlands with small fish and amphibians for the cormorants to eat. Unlike most birds, cormorant feathers get wet when they dive for fish so they need to dry them out before they can fly efficiently. After fishing, cormorants perch on a branch or log with their wings outstretched in the sunshine. This cormorant was photographed with its wings spread at Walnut Canyon Lakes in Flagstaff, Arizona, USA.
