Great cormorant (*Phalacrocorax carbo*)! Though they’re typically a coastal bird, a population of them have taken residence in the Lagan in the past few years.
Oh that’s so cool!!!! Biggest bird locally I’ve seen is an odd heron, seeing cormorants would be class!
Yeah cormorant I think, looks very similar to a shag but shags have a wee tuft on their head and not as streamlined a beak and cormorants are bigger
Ah look, its a nice little Shag!
Looks like a penguin, not sure though 🤔
It’s a Cormorant, they are sea birds and should not be inland. They are a scourge of all the rivers in the country at the moment, hoovering up huge amounts of fish and decimating populations.
Is it the famous Stormamont Cormorant ?
Shoot the fucker
Cormorant aka ducky diver
I think it’s a penguin.
Thats john, hes a branch manager
Cormorants.
That’s a climbing penguin.
If there’s a lake nearby, it’ll soon be bereft of fish life.
Kookaburra…and old gum tree
Defo it’s a cormorant
Pretty sure I seen one of them in the woods in Limavady
It’s the symbol of Limerick
A shag at last!
That river will be decimated of its fish,circle of life I suppose lol

I have a photo of it too! Near Shaws Bridge. I think it’s a cormorant, although you normally see them on the coast.
