Description

Little Black Shag spotted resting near Little Shag at Milford Sound. This sighting may be slightly out of previously recorded ranges for this species. (date estimated, sometime in March). However, it's been suggested this may be a black morph of a Stewart Is Shag. I recall grey feet but other than that I can't help with distinguishing it as a Little Black Shag. The book Bird Distribution of NZ suggests Little Black Shag also.
