After a nice bath, this Pied-billed Grebe dried off with a big shake. I was lucky that this took place in some nice light and at close range!

I seldom encounter a very pleasing picture of this grebe and this one is definitely a very good one. Love the light, the colors, and the water droplets!
I love it when they do that "wingless" water shake. I like the water drop action.
Neat love the streamlined look on the bird and the background colors here.
Beautiful detail and pose. A perfect HA and lovely colours throughout.

Really like the BG colors complimenting the bird. I also like the pose (never seen it before!) and splash. TFS
Doug:
As mentioned, nice color harmony, background, flying drops, good shooting angle.
These little grebes are not the most glamorous birds, but you have made him look good!
Cheers

Super image with lovely angle, light & colours. That BG is sweet & the water drops add a lot here.
Very pretty Doug. This is the kind of shot that I always expect when I click on one of your shots. Beautiful image quality, perfectly exposed, perfect color palette and still tells a story as well. A pleasure to view.
Love the light and the great BG.
Whites look great,
