Observation details
Reported earlier by Nick Lethaby. Seen floating with Western/Clark's Grebes, with Horned Grebes Nearby. Seen at a distance of several hundred yards through 70x scope. At this distance finer plumage details were not readily discernable. Distinguished from nearby grebes primarily by shape and size. Larger, longer-necked and larger-billed than nearby Horned Grebes. Shorter and thicker neck than Western/Clark's Grebes, with thicker and more tapered bill. Blockier head than Western/Clark's. Coloration - much lower contrast than nearby Western/Clark's or Horned. Very distant and cropped photo included.
