>I am visiting family in Bethesda and while birding at violette's

>with a Double-crested Cormorant. The bird was fairly far away and I
>didn't have time to try to get closer. However, I am an experienced
>birder and I was able to compare it to the Double-crested Cormorant
>right next to it. I was able to take some photos, but I will not be
>able to share them until next week. The bird appeared much smaller
>and more slender than the Double-crested. I know that this species
>is very rare in Maryland, as it is where I am from, but I know it
>has been seen before in this area. I wanted to get the word out so
>that others could look for this bird.
