Juvenile Pied-billed Grebe (Podylimbus podiceps)
I'm not sure why haven't posted this photogenic little guy. I took this photo in early August and by now it likely looks pretty much like an adult.
Looking back
This juvenile has several brothers and sisters that I have only seen from a distance. But one day this little one was bravely swimming on its own quite close to the edge of the pond where I was standing. I was the only human there so no one had yet frightened it away.
Coming up from a dive, I think (I forget)
I am connecting to Stewart M's Wild Bird Wednesday HERE

Great captures!
Nice photos Camera Girl. You continued to educated me about the world of birds.
Nice tail feather. ;-)
very nice to get so fine close-ups. Feel I can touch him!
Cute little chap. Occasionally a pied-billed grebe turns up in this country. But when they do you'll certainly not be on your own watching it.
Beautiful shots, EG!
Never seen this one before. Thanks.
I especially like your bird photos and the fact that you identify them for us who are not in the know.

Very cute small guy ! "pied", like the french word?..(foot)

What wonderful captures!
Beautiful captures. I wish I could get them to look so close.
Aren't the juveniles stunners??!!!! They remind me of winged zebras. Great close ups. I'm waiting for that perfect grebe moment.....you know the one:) It when momma carries all the little zebras on her back. I still haven't seen that one but keep crossing my fingers that it will happen:)
