The Little Grebe is also known as a ‘Dabchick’.Although they are recorded as common, Little Grebes are elusive. They will often stay hidden amongst vegetation on the edges of lakes, and ponds. They are the UK’s smallest Grebe they’re only around 100g in weight and just over 25cm long. These little water birds are great underwater swimmers and can be spotted diving under the water in search of food.

It reminds me a little of a Merganser duck with the head shape – stunning-looking bird.
