A great crested grebe caught preening itself on the Wandle delta.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #RuffledFeathers, with an alternate theme of #Brown.
And so, from down on the delta, one of the resident great crested grebes mid-bath. Another two-for-one!

A pair of great crested grebes - one male and one female. The male has his display feathers, but they are retracted
A stretch of fen with two transmission towers (pylons, if you prefer, but they are called transmission towers really)
No #heron this morning, but there were #grebes and #Mekons

Pied-billed grebes are very very cute (fish, frogs, and crawfish probably disagree).

A Pied-billed Grebe with light and dark brown feathers, a white tail, and a white beak. The bird was completely wet after diving in the pond while looking for food. The water in the pond is mostly green from reflections of green reeds around the edges. Seen at Ellis Creek Wetlands in Petaluma, California.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #DivingForFood, birds that dive under water for food. This cute #Pied-billedGrebe was completely wet after coming up from a dive while looking for dinner (Petaluma, CA - 2021) 😍🤎

Cardiff Bay Wetlands is one of the best places to get photos of Great Crested Grebes. Taken yesterday 10/02/26 during a short break in the rain. Taking my #photoyrticklist26 to No45. 🪶 #birdingwales #ukbirding #grebes
A pair of grey and white birds with long necks and pointed beaks, their heads crowned with black feathers and a ruff of red and black around their necks. They are swimming and facing each other with their beaks slightly off to one side.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Waterbirds. Which is an easy one for me, seeing as my usual birding spot is down on the Wandle delta.
Here are a pair of great-crested grebes showing their mating behaviours from last spring.

I think this is an immature.

Incoming Great Crested Grebe. Not what you want to see if you're a fish. 😄 Very soon they will begin their transformation into breeding plumage. #BirdingHungary #grebes #waterfowl
This is a pied-billed grebe doing whatever it is that grebes do.

Great Crested Grebe (Podiceps cristatus) about to be run over by the Lake Balaton ferry. 😂 (kidding.. they're too quick) Breeding plumage is spectacular compared to dull winter plumage, except for the bill. The beak is bright pink in winter but much darker during breeding #BirdingHungary #grebes
A black necked grebe in grey and white eclipse plumage and red eyes swims in a calm lake. Swimming directly next to it is a male tufted duck in black and white breeding plumage with yellow eyes and a crest on the back of its head.

Pied-billed grebes are small birds. This one is in non-breeding winter plumage - grayish-brown on its back, streaky orangish-brown on its chest and flanks. It is in profile view in gray coloured water, looking to the left.

We are lucky that in most years, a Pied-billed Grebe chooses to spend its winter in a local canal. #birds #birding #grebes #HamOnt
Two small waterbirds swim from left to right in bright blue water dotted with little bits of green growth in front and behind. They swim in a clear channel, which reflects both of them very nice. They are very cute.
Here's a pair of pied-billed grebes for the #BirdOfTheDay today. I can't help but find them to be the cutest little birds around. 🙂

Two black and white birds are up out of the water, paddling with their feet in a behavior called "rushing" or a "grebe water dance". Their wings are extended behind them and there's a wake in their trail.
Grebes in a rush. I love their courtship behaviors. #twosday #Birds #grebes #waterdance #BirdOfTheDay
