Wildlife Monitoring
Pied Shag
Phalacrocorax varius varius
Maori name: Kāruhiruhi
A little over a year ago, I wrote about the Little Shag and, by extension, shags in general. (See April 2012’s Bird Watch). The Pied and Black shags were mentioned as two other species that live in the Nelson area. My son spotted these Pied Shags in the Haven and found them very willing to be photographed.
