The Birdorable Western Grebe

December 2nd, 2007 in Grebes, New Birds, Waterbirds – 6 comments

The Western Grebe is the latest bird to be cutified as a Birdorable. Western Grebes are water birds that live in North America. During their elaborate courtship rituals, pairs of Grebes will race madly across the water. Both parents raise the chicks and both will carry them on their back, as seen in this - our totally cute Birdorable version of the Western Grebe.

I discovered a bird that I call the yellow bellied common jay (a kind of grebe.) it lives in the Americas and Europe and Asia.a rare and unknown bird that has three subspecies: the sooty common jay, lesser common jay, and greater common jay. i might have stayed with the birds for a week, but i did not have time...so i visit them every Friday and all Friday. i learned that his enemies are: herring gulls, ospreys, bald eagles, and goshawks. once i saw one take a blow at a herring gull! larger then the common jay! the birds bet themselves-up a lot more then each other! a cool experience but weird one too. but nature also...

so the birds diet is made up of : small fish, pond plants, and snakes or snails. the common jays are uncommon jays.
