Nearly Wordless Wednesday: Pied-Billed Grebe


The pied-billed grebe sinks straight down when it wants to hide or hunt for food. Other water birds dive, but this one is more like a submarine. You have to sneak up on it, or it will disappear - the pied-billed grebe is easily frightened. So it's a real treat to be able to see one.

If you have this affect on a duck I can only guess what your congregation does when it sees you coming:-)
Very astute observation, Ray!
