Photographed at the Massachusetts shore, the eyes of these Grebes look so unusual. Please click on image for a larger version.

I always wonder how such sweet little Grebes have such a demonic eye! A fine image, Axel.

Striking eye for sure! And such a sweet little grebe. Like the watery surrounds and the pretty grebe. Well done.

Excellent image, as always, Axel. A nice effect with the swirling water around the grebe, and a pleasing colour to the water, as well.
