Observation details
I was at once startled and delighted when, approaching the Dam from the drainage ditch, feeling sure that I must've gone down there for some reason, a perfect little Grebe went paddling out from right beside the water's edge!! Having determinedly made its way to the middle of the Dam, as Grebes here are always wont to do, it relaxed enough to start feeding in a way I've never seen of a Grebe before!! Like a Phalarope, it very energetically darted this way and that, diving under for split seconds before paddling off to another patch of Dam to try again; I can only imagine the Tadpoles are either particularly plentiful or vigorous today!!
