Here you go. Grebe showed well but was initially very elusive as it was hugging the far bank. Weather atrocious but I went back in afternoon during a break in the weather.

Just a quicky. In the 90's there was a May Red-necked Grebe at Frodsham along with Garganey (pair?) and two Black-necked Grebes. Over the course of three days they all moved to Budworth Mere, just a heads up to the patchers that this may be a good chance for Lesser Scaup.
