On a brief visit to Anacortes, Washington last weekend we noticed thes Pelagic Cormorants catching the final rays of sunshine for the day.
Later though when looking at the photos I had taken I noticed one Cormorant seemed to have a bigger and different shaped beak than the rest. I lightened up the photo hoping to see a pale face patch suggesting a Brandt's and a lifer for me, but no luck, also the size of the bird seemed consistent with the others. Is this just a Pelagic with a bit of a different beak?
