| | | Red Necked Grebe - St Annes, Lancs
Caused a bit of a stir this little beauty has on the Fylde Coast. Spotted while taking my 4 week old baby daughter out on here first spotting session with her Dad. Am hoping she is a lucky as this every time!!!
Taken at Fairhaven Lake, St Annes, Lancashire on 08/01/2011. Wonderful to have the bird on the lake only 4 metres away from the edge. Was still there yesterday aswell if anyone is interested in visiting.

Yes it was indeed, they really are cracking birds. Its great for your daughter, hopefully she will get into wildlife as she grows up. Its a fantastic subject for kids to get into they learn so much.  |

Take a look at Pauline's (PMG) photos of this Fairhaven bird in the Gallery. They are stonkers.
