Juvenile Cormorant

Apparently a juvenile Cormorant can have a pale or indeed white breast.  There is a view that they stand with wings outstretched to help digest the fish that they have caught. Sorted!

Just seen this after getting my internet back. Juvenile Cormorants do have white beneath and all Cormorants stand with their wings spread to dry out, as their feathers (oddly) aren't waterproof.

A more modest young bird methinks!
