    Phalacrocorax sulcirostris known as Little Black Cormorant are about 61cm in length and with a long thin bill, the Little Black Cormorant takes a wide range of prey from larger, deeper stretches of water. They tend to congregate in flocks, sitting on banks or perching on dead trees to dry. Their flying alternates flapping and gliding, and they can often be seen in line formation. Breeding occurs mainly in spring-autumn, depending on food supply. The nest is a platform of sticks and debris, built in a tree or on a bush.
