I was surprised at how close this Double-Crested Cormorant allowed me to get. We were at a small pond, and perhaps this bird had gotten used to people walking right by on the path. So I sat down on the bench and watched as s/he sunned out his/her wings. Just as I was about to leave he called out something and then flew off.

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."
