| ssp. novaehollandiae. 9th August, 2010. Karkarook Park (Victoria-Australia). |

Notes:
Where it usually occurs this cormorant is often ubiquitous and easy to find. Where it doesn't occur, another cormorant usually takes its place. As a cormorant, they exhibit the typical behaviour of the family; often you will see them on posts or along the edge of water, fanning out their wings to dry them in the sun.
