Horned Grebe
Friends, this is a friendly horned grebe on Phantom Lake, the afternoon light was just right for a closeup portrait. Those yellow feathers on each side of her head are the “horns”. I don’t always get this close but he didn’t mind my vehicle. til Tomorrow MJ

What an interesting and beautiful bird.
I do love grebes, so perky but you have to be quick to catch them, well done!
Great capture! Great closeup
Unusual eye colour.
Lovely photo.
