Happy Saturday Everyone!

This morning we have a Pied-Billed Grebe in non-breeding plumage. The Pied-Billed Grebe’s loud vocalization makes it sound very similar to the Yellow-Billed Cuckoo, despite their wildly different behaviors and habitats. Pied-Billed Grebes very rarely fly – when in danger, they actually dive up to 20 feet underwater. Have a great weekend everyone!
