Hi all
the 'fun' season up here has started in style with already a range of 
goodies and now a Little Grebe, Tachybaptus ruficollis, at the 
sewage works. It's one of the dark-eyed races, which is helpful 
since it makes identification easier, though this and Australasian 
are remarkably different for such similar birds. I'd been watching for 
a few years for this one but was actually expecting it to look more 
like our normal grebe than it does. Nice to have things turn out 
easier than you expect; it doesn't happen often. If any worthwhile 
photos are taken I'll post copies on my website.

Happy birding
Niven
