One of several new birds for me and Eared Grebe (yes the scarlet eyes really are that bright.)
Shot earlier in the week at Tule Lake, Klamath Basin Wildlife Refuge area Oregon.

Excellent, Craig. Looks like you had a successful trip. I love the gold reflections in the water and the grebe itself is outstanding.

That eye is amazing! Very nice shot! Good detail on the grebe and good job with the light. I also like the reflections, both gold and the grebe.

Awesome! I've never been down there; I'll have to visit it one of these days.
Wow! That's a truly amazing shot! I've never seen an Eared Grebe before, so this is pretty exciting. Another to add to my wish list. Nice reflection into the dazzling water, too.
