The grebes always look so awkward out of the water w/ those legs so far back on their bodeis. I think I've only seen a grebe out of the water once or twice. Nice capture :)

Very nice capture. Its amazing how this bird stays upright as it's centre of gravity looks to be so far forward in the picture -maybe has a build up of lead shot in its lower gut. ;)
