cormorants?

I get confused between little Pied Cormorants and Pied Cormorants!

I can see the yellow eye patch here, so that makes them Pied Cormorants I think.

I think your right. Little Pieds will also have a mostly yellow bill, with some black, where Pieds generally have the greyish bill, as in your photos. The skin patch you mention is also an indicator. Not an expert, but happy to keep, learning.

Definitely Pied Cormorant. The Little Pied Cormorant also as a brighter yellow bill.
