Phalacrocorax auritus
Water bird.
Verified in the book. Birds of the Puget Sound Region. By Bob Morse, Tom Aversa, and Hal Opperman.
Throat patch on Brandt's is orange, and more extensive; Pelagic throat patch, from what I can see in my books, is small and red, and hard to see.
Call me stubborn, but I say Brandt's. :)
