I just had a Neotropic Cormorant fly west-southwest past Whimbrel Point while lake watching at Col. Sam Smith Park in Etobicoke.
The roughly mallard-sized bird flew by at 7:07am with a flock of about 30 Double-crested Cormorants and was materially smaller with much faster wingbeats than the other birds. I had it in my scope for at least 30 seconds. I suspect it came from the roost Tommy Thompson Park (Leslie Street Spit) in Toronto. Col. Sam Smith spark is south of the intersection of Kipling & Rathburn in Etobicoke.
