Pie-billed Grebe

Hi Purpleturtle, welcome to Project Noah! This is a Grebe, but it is not a Pied-billed Grebe. Pied-billed are much smaller. I believe this is a Western Grebe, have a look and see what you think. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Grebe

Welcome to Project Noah, Purpleturtle I hope you like the site as much we do; there are many features you can explore: I invite you to go to http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you will find the purpose and “rules” of Project Noah.

There are also the chats for help with identification, and to comment on your own and others’ spottings. Look at the global and local missions to put your spottings into: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions Enjoy yourself here, see you around!
