Double-crested Cormorant
Cormorán orejudo
Cormoran à aigrettes
Ohrenscharbe
Its habitat is near rivers and lakes as well as in coastal areas, and is widely distributed across North America. Measuring 70–90 cm (28–35 in) in length, it is an all-black bird which gains a small double crest of black and white feathers in breeding season. It has a bare patch of orange-yellow facial skin and green eyes. It mainly eats fish and hunts by swimming and diving. Its feathers, like those of all cormorants, are not waterproof and it must spend time drying them out after spending time in the water.
