I've seen this species a few times before, but never so close and easily photographed. Two of these birds swam parallel to one another, as if to mark their foraging limits in the pond. At the Eccles Wildlife Education Center, Davis County, Utah. #WesternGrebe #AechmophorusOccidentalis #WEGR Wow!
Late summer is when the young of the year start to go out on their own, like this #WesternGrebe.

Edit: I put this photo on iNaturalist, and it may be an #EaredGrebe.
Watched a Westen Grebe diving in a lake for a while.
