Title: Col.Sam Smith Grebes
Post by: Irene on August 29, 2012, 10:07:44 AM

Yesterday afternoon I went out to see the Grebes at Sam Smith, they look good and healthy, the babies are now diving and eating some seaweed(if that's what we call it) on their own and parents are still feeding them fishies
Will be heading out to check on them again this morning
enjoy

So the third egg did not hatch?   Nice photos, by the way!

Thanks for the update on these guys Irene.
Nice series of shots you have here.
Wow, they certainly are getting big. Still a big size difference between the two babies. But the little one seems to be doing great.
