Pie-billed Grebe

Podilymbus podiceps

Description:

This Pie-billed Grebe Grebe was floating up river with a Horned Grebe (spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/223...). I have never even seen these before! A small diving bird with a chicken-lke bill, the Pied-billed Grebe is common on lakes and ponds across North America. It is rarely seen flying and prefers to sink out of sight when danger threatens.

Habitat:

River
