Red Necked Grebes - the thrill of a fight November 2013

 The Red Necked Grebe was like a snake SSSS across the water
There were Mallards and another Grebe in the pond.
I assumed it was chasing away the Mallard from the juvenile.
Nope
 A full out battle between the two grebes
It was nasty
It was scary
But it was not fast




 Carol and I stood there watching with mouth open



 Till finally they went underwater and both left the area

 After the battle - they swan to another area and then fell asleep.
