Worth The Wait???

Had to lay in wait for approx. one and a half hours to get this tiny Pied-billed Grebe. They are quite shy and dive underwater very often.

absolutely worth it. I've never seen these IRL. You might touch the contrast up a bit, but other than that they're strong images.

That's dedication!! I like the reflection of the neck in the water.

Yes indeed, worth the wait. Their heads are soaking wet so they must have just popped up out of the water when you caught them on camera. Nice catch!
