Observation details

Grebe in immature/nonbreeding plumage- white cheeks, throat, and breast, black/dark nape. Mottled sides, black back. Couldn't see eye color, bill greyish. Referring to the All About Birds comparisons, bill looks better for Horned (somewhat shorted than Red-necked Grebe). Head/forehead has gentler slope than an Eared Grebe to my eye. The white/dark contrast on face is crisper than an Eared Grebe.
