Red-necked Grebe on the nest with four eggs.

The nest is in a tire at a boat marina.  Charlotte and i sat on the rocks and watched them even in the rain.  People told us that she had 3 eggs hatch and only the one baby survived.  Lets hope they all survive the second clutch.
carefully stepping around the 4 eggs


She went off the nest for no more than 2 minutes then right back
We did not see her eat the whole time we were there



Carefully sitting down
