@quietpurplehaze Thanks Hazel. I just looked it up and think it might actually be an Australasian Darter - which are similar to cormorants and hang around with them.
You should have named him " BATMAN!!!!!! " LOL LOL LOL! Fantastic details and clarity!! He must be in the cormorant family, but he doesn't have their hook on the end of his beak!! He's stunning!! FAV!
Thank you - I think it's just a bit more spectacular than a cormorant so you are probably right in what you found.
