    Yes - if you mean the centre of the picture. There are indeed some shags. The cormorants seem to keep to that far edge (and sometimes they are on their cone-like nests).

    I have done some comparison pictures in the hope of helping to spot the difference, see here: https://talk.penguinwatch.org/#/boards/BPZ0000002/discussions/DPZ0000nfe?page=1&comment_id=573780c64d34410a330005ad

    I hope this helps 😃

    I put a mark over the birds that I was sure were cormorants, I'm not 100% sure that all of the rest were penguins, a couple arriving up the rocks were too difficult to make out 😃
