Podiceps, the Crested Grebes

Grebes in the genus Podiceps are odd birds found throughout the world. Known for their habit of puking up their feathers to feed to their young, and their beautiful breeding plumages, these diving birds form a unique and fascinating group of animals.
I was inspired to do this video by the recent Bird of the Century competition, Ths was a competition that the Crested Grebe won, spearheaded by comedian John Oliver's passionate campaign.
All pictures attributed to Animal Analytics were taken by me personally. A full description of all others can be found in the following document, along with notable scientific papers I used when researching this topic.
