A Pied-billed Grebe taken on 15 August 2019 at Olympia’s Capitol Lake. Grebes are odd birds—they lack tails, have their feet so far back on their bodies that they can not stand on the ground, their toes sport flaps rather than being webbed together like duck toes, and they can control their buoyancy. Pied-billed Grebes are seldom seen flying, because they migrate at night.
