Sorry for previous post with bad subject. Single red necked Grebe successfully fishing quite close to SE corner of Lake Harriet. With numerous horned grebes.
Also of interest on Lake Calhoun, four Redheads and several Bonaparte gulls in amongst large flock of coots, s.w. shoreline.

Our bird had a darker chest and perhaps a more vibrant salmon colored belly. Interestingly, while this range in plumage is not indicated in either the Sibley or National Geographic field guides that I have, it reminds me of the pair that nested in northwestern Yellow Medicine County a few years ago.
