Title: Let's Get It On
Post by: MEGHAN on April 20, 2014, 06:23:44 PM

The Red-necked Grebes are certainly enjoying each other’s company at SSP. Unfortunately the nest they are building is destined to fail based on its location.
I wonder when folks are going to put out the platforms for them, hopefully soon.
In the meantime they are doing what Grebes do best at this time of year….

Great series Meghan! I've never managed to see the whole courtship.  It looks like you had a front row seat.
