Horned Grebe

Horned Grebe (Podiceps auritus)

this very obliging Horned Grebe was feeding close to an oyster bar and was very unconcerned that I was so close. I sat down quietly and took many pictures (handheld) as it swam up and down alongside the oyster bar chasing bait fish.

Aaaw Andy... what a lovely grebe, and such a pretty eye he has too.

A super picture this one lad. It's great to see another post from you.
