Observation details
Details for this bird edited 4/7/24… I just saw the reports today of an Eared Grebe at this location. Recalling the supposed ‘Horned Grebe’ I reported 4/6/24, I reviewed my photos and the bird I saw matched the Eared Grebe reported later in the afternoon. I didn’t think to look but the high tuft & thin, slightly upturned bill matched that of an Eared as opposed a Horned. Photos poor as the bird was under the dock, resulting in a low-light shot. It is safe to assume that this bird is an Eared, thanks to the reports later in the day.
