Wild Bird Wednesday


Horned Grebe


I have only seen this bird on our lake once  before in 17 years ... I guess I was lucky to spot them.  They are migrating through and will be gone by the next clear day.  They nest on northern lakes and marshes and winter on coastal bays and lakes.

Oh, I'm glad you got to see them.... if only for a short time. That is always fun.

Grebes are such great looking birds! Glad you managed to see them.
