Early in my birdwatching, I had always assumed this to be a little pied, but going back through this photo, now I am not sure, the shape doesn't look quite right.

Pied for me HelloBirdy.
The Littles I have seen are much for stumpy for want of a better word
I say pied too. Agree with Rick about stumpy.

Yep, Pied. Note the black trousers not present on the little. Once you start to see them more the size difference will become obvious.

Looks like a young Little Pied Cormorant to me. The relative bill size appears to be too small for a Pied.
Shorty, note young Little Pied Cormorants do have the black trousers(thighs), similar to Pied Cormorants.
