Over the last week I've seen a large group of Cormorants roosting on an island 
at Lake Ginninderra in Canberra.  At first I thought they were all Great 
Cormorants, but on closer inspection, they're a mix of Great Cormorants and 
Little Black Cormorants, about 30 in all.

I think so anyway - many of the cormorants had grey beaks, and from my 
reference material even the juvenile Great Cormorant has a slightly yellow 
beak.  Has anyone else from Canberra seen this group of birds?
