A Brand New Bird? Or a bad photo of a Horned Grebe?





We saw these birds on the slough near Luck Lake this afternoon. They appeared to be ducks, but they don't have duck bills. Deep study of four bird guides says nothing looks like this. The closest we got is the Horned Grebe on a short neck day.

those are pretty distinctive markings on the back aren't they?
