This is the first time i have seen a little Grebe(I think),so here are a couple of pics.Never before have I found it so difficult to take a picture.Each time I saw him on the water,by the time I had fixed the camera onto the scope he had ducked underneath again,also it was about 1/2 mile across the lagoon.
I will put a choice of two.
Thankyou Christine.

Without doubt it's a Little Grebe and congratulations on the new bird :t:

They're one of my favourite species.
 
I'd be happy to call Little Grebe on the basis of those two pics, Christine... and the fact that he kept diving is another good pointer!

Thanks everyone,.
Christine..
