Day 18 of #Coverbirds! Today’s coverbirds are fabulous grebes - Eared and Red-necked. Given the variety of looks and their amazing behaviours, they surely deserve a magazine of their own (1/5) #birds
Fake magazine cover of GrebeLife, June 2026 issue. The main photo is of a pair of black grebes with bright gold spray of feathers behind their vibrant red eyes. Inset photo is of a pair of Red-necked Grebes rushing beside each other with beaks open, calling. The text blurbs on the cover are, “Grebetacular Courtship Edition”, “What to wear to your next weed ceremony”, “Rushing tips from the pros” and “Dance like everybody’s watching”.

A tiny bird is swimming in a giant marina, completely ignoring several expensive yachts parked behind it. Same bird, cropped in for a better look. You want boats, go see the post before this one.

I'm a huge fan of grebes, though I've only seen Great Crested and Little Grebe so far.

On Friday, Clark’s Grebe made a last minute appearance at the exit from the Riparian Preserve to wish us a safe trip home. #birds

A tiny bird is swimming in a giant marina, completely ignoring several expensive yachts parked behind it. A Red-necked Grebe looking like a fancy corporate executive. Sleek black toupee, bright red turtleneck sweater, and a sharp yellow beak. Massive, blurry luxury boats that cost more than a house. A giant, rippling mirror filled with blue and white reflections. Maximum dramatic tension. The bird looks like it is actively plotting to steal one of the boats. If you look closely you'll see it's got dinner in it's bill.
