This Double-crested Cormorant was sunning him (or her) self on a branch next to a pond just a few minutes walk from my house. S/he didn't seem bothered when I came and sat on a bench not far away, and was more interested in what what happening on the pond, when some geese swam by. Cormorants spread their wings in order to dry them, and that's just what this one was doing in the warm Colorado sun.

From Cornell Labs: "The gangly Double-crested Cormorant is a prehistoric-looking, matte-black fishing bird with yellow-orange facial skin. Though they look like a combination of a goose and a loon, they are relatives of frigatebirds and boobies and are a common sight around fresh and salt water across North America—perhaps attracting the most attention when they stand on docks, rocky islands, and channel markers, their wings spread out to dry. These solid, heavy-boned birds are experts at diving to catch small fish."
