There was a western grebe offshore of south point in Rondeau Provincial Park. Many second glances later I was convinced that it could not be anything else but confused since this bird has never been reported in Chatham-Kent county before.

For the next few days this gorgeous and elegant bird stayed at the point. It hunted, groomed itself and all around just floated around looking pretty until Friday when boat traffic drove it away from Rondeau.

Thankfully this gave other birders the chance to confirm my sighting and get much better photos than I managed through my binoculars.
