Great-crested Grebes do seem to have a very protracted breeding season. Always lovely birds to see.. |

Nice pictures. Thanks for reminding me that I was supposed to check on a GCG nesting on Forfar Loch this week. Hope I haven't missed anything. (about 20 metres from public pathway in case anyone rips me up about disturbing nesting birds)
