I have a pied-billed grebe and a female bufflehead that like to hang out together all the time. Not sure what mutually beneficial arrangement this is, but I've seen it on multiple days.

Here they are... all taken with the 7D2 & 100-400 II. Thanks for looking!

If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

Very nice shots. Pied-billed grebes usually visit us in late fall and, sure enough, one was down in our channel this morning.
