Pied-Billed Grebe

Santee, CA

Took a walk around Mission Dam this morning looking for new birds. Not much to speak of, but added a different shot of this guy to my bird collection. Here it's nice and comfy staying warm from the morning rain. I thought this was a more artistic shot with the reflection. Once the flash went off, he took more notice of me and was easier to identify.
