Boy that Grebe really is small! Can see why it gets mistaken for a young duck....

Not very close, but in full breeding dress. They are about the size of a week old Mallard chick
In winter they are a bland brownish-ecru shade without the cheeky mark and chestnut head, only their tail end is paler, and very fluffy and downy..
