Pied-billed Grebe - Photographs

© All Rights Reserved
© All Rights Reserved
This is 1 of 2 posts of photographs I took at Perry's Mill Pond in Fairfield, CT this past week.

I was thrilled to get photographs of what I think is a Pied-billed Grebe. I believe I've seen evidence of these aquatic diving birds in the past, but it was the water ripples left behind after they had vanished underwater. This is the first time I've actually seen what it was.

The first photo is my entry for the following:

Great looking bird - are these little grebes shy? Ours (a different species) are - I find them hard to photograph.
