Little Grebe (Tachybaptus ruficollis)

This photo I took 03. Dec and it was very dark morning. It was cloudy and Kajaani-river was not frosen. This little grebe is very rare here in middle of Finland (and also in hole Finland). I took this photo inside my car. ISO Speed was 1600 and shutter speed was only 1/30 sec. It was miracle that I succeed as well I did
