Observation details
Caught and ate a small, snake-like fish, olive green color, probably less than a foot long with a small round paddle at the end of its tail. The fish coiled and writhed in the Grebe's mouth while the Grebe dunked it repeatedly and slapped it down on the water's surface for several minutes before he was able to position the fish properly for swallowing, and then gulped it down.
