Description

This male Double-crested Cormorant flew in to mate with the female, who was calling and telling him she was ready! I love the look on his face, as if he's saying, "I'm here for you, baby, don't you worry!".

From Audubon's website: "This dark, long-bodied diving bird floats low in the water with its thin neck and bill raised; perches upright near water with wings half-spread to dry. The Double-crested (which rarely looks noticeably crested in the field) is the most generally distributed cormorant in North America, and the only one likely to be seen inland in most areas."

Photo taken on March 9, 2018, in Lakewood, Colorado
