Little Grebe chick...

Little grebe
Scientific name: Tachybaptus ruficollis
The little grebe is a fantastic diver, but to help it swim underwater, its feet are placed towards the back of its body, making it rather clumsy on land. It only really comes ashore to breed.
Grebes are diving waterbirds, feeding on small fish and aquatic invertebrates. The little grebe or 'dabchick', as it is sometimes known, is our smallest grebe, about half the size of a moorhen. Grebes nest on floating platforms made up of waterweed.
