I have researched New England seabirds and can't find anything like this one. If anyone can tell me what it is, appreciated. The shot from yesterday was of Mallard Ducks in flight.
It looks like a (Crested) Grebe of some sort but the only ones I can find on the internet have predominantly white faces or no crest. Maybe it's a juvenile.
We have Great Crested Grebes in the UK and they are very similar in appearance to this, except for that facial and bill colouration.
Well seen and caught and if this one was as speedy and inclined to sudden dives and prolonged underwater swimming as ours are, extra well caught!
@timerskine@dulciknit Ah, bird people! Thank you. I am struggling with camera settings, etc. This is a crop and there is lots of digital noise. I feel like a photo juvenile again!
