Pied Shag. (35897116714)

Description:

Summary[edit] Description: This large black-and-white shag is often seen individually or in small groups roosting on rocky headlands, trees or artificial structures. In regions where it occurs, it can usually be readily seen about harbours and estuaries associated with cities or towns. Unlike most other shag species, the pied shag is reasonably confiding, allowing close approach when roosting or nesting in trees. It generally forages alone, but occasionally in small groups when prey is abundant. Date: 8 March 2011, 11:03. Source: Pied Shag.. Author: Bernard Spragg. NZ from Christchurch, New Zealand.
