Around 2:45 P.M., I spotted an Eared Grebe from the north side of the boathouse in Aurora. It was somewhere around 1/3rd the way out in the lake. I first noticed 5 Horned Grebes further north and further out on the lake. As I scanned, the Eared Grebe came into view. It was much closer to shore, but I still needed to zoom in on it. It was actively feeding, heading south. The dark head and shape of the forehead, white ear patch, and dusky neck were easily identified. Best, Ann Mitchell
