Two little ones (Tachybaptus ruficollis)

Arriving at my Patch, we sat by the lochan to eat our lunch and to see what might be about this mid-August day. An adult Little Grebe appeared and from the distance we were away we could see another. It wasn't until I studied the pictures, that I realised the closer one had to be a youngster.

That was nice to see.
