Double-crested Cormorants often stand in the sun with their wings spread out to dry. They have less preen oil than other birds, so their feathers can get soaked rather than shedding water like a duck’s. This picture of this immature Double-crested Cormorant was taken at the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge on a somewhat foggy, misty day.

Double-crested Cormorant Juvenile on Piling
The picture of this Juvenile Double-crested Cormorant was taken at the Stuyvesant Cove Park on the East River in Manhattan. I enjoy going to this little park on the river to photograph because it has many pilings that are the remnants of an old factory where the cormorants love to perch and preen.
