Great Crested Grebe (Podiceps cristatus)

A morbid sky today, but I caught these. It was a long distance to take a reasonable shots, but, I did it. It was cropped a little.

  11. What a capture, Bob, his and yours! You caught him in the act, and apparently so did another hungry bird. Wonderful!

  27. Caught it just at the right time!

  28. Great pictures again, Bob. I don't mind when your photos are cropped. They are still excellent. I think most of the bird pictures are cropped. In the past photographers already used equipment to enlarge pictures, so what's wrong with it? I know it is a discussion between photographers. Have a nice (sunny?) weekend. Greetings, Joke
