Fortunate enough to capture a few photos of these horned grebes as they passed by. The first two were on a cloudy morning, while the third was during the sunny afternoon. All shot with a 7d and 70-200 f/2.8+2x extender. Thanks for looking!

Thanks! The horned grebes I've seen here in Ohio seem to be in about every possible stage of their molting between non-breeding and breeding plumage,too, which makes ID a bit more interesting. It seems they all look slightly different from one another.

Very pretty pair in that 1st capture Brad.
And WOW, did the sun bring out the "eye shine" in your 3rd capture or what. Excellent!

Pretty amazing, isn't it? I can't believe just how red those eyes are!

Thanks, Andrew! I felt very fortunate to have them swim by as closely as they did, so I could get decent shots with 400mm worth of lens.

Thanks, Ronnie! I've just gotten back into birding in the past 6-8 months after being interested in it when I was younger, so I'm just starting to get down IDs, too.
