Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus)
A Neotropic Cormorant on some drifting palm pranches in the Nariva River, Nariva Swamp, Trinidad. This wetland is actually of major significance locally and is one of the best places to spot rarely seen species such as the green anaconda, the endemic subspecies of white-fronted capuchins and some species of migratory warblers.

The Neotropic cormorant is a medium-sized cormorant found throughout the American tropics and subtropics, from the middle Rio Grande and the Gulf and Californian coasts of the United States south through Mexico and Central America to southern South America, where he is called by the Indian name of "biguá".
