I agree with avesjohn's comment..I have not seen prominent sexual dimorphism in cormorants ..Lucky u ! to have spotted so many different juveniles..I have photograph of a baby night heron and it almost looks like a pond heron..Please,do upload those photographs of the night and green heron if you have them ...It must be a nice reserve for you to monitor...

Thnx aves john. It is very deliteful to know that this is a juvenile cormorant. I have seen the mate of the one above too. We had sea duck babies and recently I spotted a baby night heron and baby green heron..It is good to know that this reserve is a breeding ground for various species.
The bird on the lower branch is a juvenile. There's no prominent sexual dimorphism in cormorants, at least to my knowledge.
Anjali,yes they are. However i need to identify the one on the lower branch. Female or juvenile?
