Great Crested Grebe [Podiceps cristatus]

Unusual find on Lydneys' lake. 
I knocked my camera against the tripod, and put a lot of things out, hence that is why it looks a bit out.

  5. An excellent find. I am forever knocking my cameras but it seems to make little difference to the quality of my images.
