    Re: Neotropic Cormorant in Phoenix?

    The head and bill size as well as the apparent white V seem to indicate Neotropic but I am not positive as certain feildmarks are not visible and I don't really have any experience with this species. I would post a link to these photos on the Arizona Listserve asking for a definite ID if I were you as I don't think anyone here will be able to tell  for sure.
