Some years ago a photographic field guide came out with some of the birds wrongly identified. It turned out that after the experts had selected photos a picture editor had gone through and changed some of them to ones that looked prettier - but were unfortunately of the wrong species. I wonder if something like that has happened here.
This is a picture identified in my Audubon page-a-day calendar as a Great Cormorant. Clearly it is a darter rather than any kind of cormorant. My question is, what kind of darter? The darters I have seen live I have always identified by location. Not knowing where this picture was taken, I do not have any references that allow me to determine which of the darters it is.
