If you’ve been reading here for a while, you know I really like cormorants and darters. Not only are they beautiful, they are smart – what a great combination. This Australian Darter lives at the Australia Zoo. Isn’t he beautiful?
Got birds?

Yes it’s beautiful. It’s my first time to see this kind of bird.
oh. yes, he is beautiful. Especially when spreading its wings like that. Great capture.
Beautiful shot Wren! I would love to see one in person. They must be spectacular up close.
Great to see its wings spread open like that. Terrific photo. Carol
He’s awesome!
And he’s posing just for you to show off his beautiful plumage
Wren: Certainly has a cormorant look about it.
and you know how I love cormorants ….
Lovely photo and a very typical pose for this bird. I hope you saw cormorants as well.
I did, though at more of a distance so the photos are nothing much.
It is a beautiuful bird. The Darter looks very similiar to the Cormorants. Is it Australia’s vesion of a Cormorants.
Eileen, They are related, as are anhingas. All beautiful and graceful.
