    Looks like a cormorant to me.

    Is it a Cormorant of some sort? Legs are too short to be a Heron I would have thought, unless they're obscured by the rock.

    thanks, googled pictures of cormorant and it looks like he's a Great Cormorant, it was the odd looking head and beak that got me wondering. Lived here all my life and never had the pleasure of meeting one in all my years!

    Yes, It's a Cormorant, quite common on all Irish shores. Known as the Great Cormorant in America...

    Some people confuse the Shag (also quite common) with the Cormorant..
