CommentThis year there seems to have been more opportunities to shoot juvenile birds as the breeding has ben much more prolific in this wetter 2021 Summer season. I find the Juvenile Grebes very pretty and fluffy and so very photogenic like this one was. It had just emerged from a dive so has wet feathers and a drop of water on its bill which added something a bit more interesting to what could been just another 'bird on water' shot. I enjoyed the subtle framing of the bird by the concentric water ripples as well.
