I often hear pied-billed grebes calling in a pond near my house, but they're always far away at the opposite side of the pond. So it's great to see some footage of them up close, especially while they're making that weird call of theirs.
Hello Gijs, greetings from Canada. Thanks for watching and for your very kinds words. I have been working on a second video about these fabulous birds called "The Secret Lives of Pied-billed Grebes." I hope it will be finished in a few weeks. Cheers, Rudy
Hi Adam. Thanks very much for your kind words. It was so great meeting you today and chatting a bit. After you left I decided to be a little adventurous and take a walk right around the pond to have a look at that shelter you mentioned. The distance around the pond is almost 2.5 kms so today I hiked 4.5 kms with 22 pounds of gear. I kinda pooped now and needing a nap. LOL. Take care, Rudy
Another superb video! Educational and just plain fun to watch. I've heard the sounds they make for years, but never knew what bird was making it, so it was quite a nice surprise to watch and listen to those sounds here!
Great video. Calm and clear commantary makes it even better. I should visit Canada sometime in my lifetime as in Finland all of these birds are either very rare occasional visitors (wood ducks) or non existent.
Hi GallstoneFIG, thanks very much for your very kind comment! I think you would love Canada, it's a lot like parts of Finland. Have a great day! Cheers, Rudy 🙂
Thanks Tony. Yes, I had to do some major body contortions with some wet bum time to get low enough to get close to eye-level with these Grebes, but it was worth it.

Exquisite! And the photographer was down very low, maybe too low for the mosquitoes
?
