dragon49 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) I haven't asked this question in a long time and the wing drying routine leads me to thinking Anhinga, but I'm not certain from the other poses.

Avery Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Double-crested Cormorant. Cormorants will also dry their wings like that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jodi Nielson Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Also, Anhingas have straight bills while Cormorants have the hook. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clip Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 My husband still has trouble differentiating between the two also especially at a distance. You'll get there very likely faster than my husband will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
