  • Imperial Cormorant or King Shag or King Cormorant (Phalacrocorax atriceps albiventer)<br />
Steeple Jason Island. FALKLAND ISLANDS.<br />
RANGE: Coasts of South America, Subantarctic Islands, Antarctic Peninsula<br />
They usually breed in closely packed colonies often associated with Rockhopper Penguins and Black-browed Albatross on flat cliff top sites. The nest is a column of mud, tussock grass and algae. 2 - 4 eggs are layed. They feed offshore, often in flocks pursuing feed, usually small schooling fish.<br />
<br />
The Jasons (Grand and Steeple) are a chain of islands 40 miles (64km) north and west off West Falkland towards Patagonia. Steeple is 6 by 1 mile (10Km by 1.6km) in size. From the coast the land rises steeply to a rocky ridge running along the length. <br />
This island has the largest Black-browed Albatross colony in the world with 113,000. The island is owned by WCS (Wildlife Conservation Society)

They return to the same nest annually. The nest is a a solid pillar up to 50cm high of mud and guano with some grass and seaweed incorporated. A single egg is laid in October and juveniles fledge between mid March and April. They have a circumpolar range betweeen 65 S and 20 south and breed on Subantarctic Islands, Including South Georgia and islands off southern South America. In the Falklands they are also found on Beauchene, Saunders, West Point and New Island.<br />
