Summary edit

Description

Pied-billed Grebes have also been referred to as "helldivers" for their knack at diving and "apparent" lack of resurfacing. They have the ability to trap water in their feathers, giving them control over their buoyancy. This allows them to lie sunken in the water as this one is doing at the Schneider Waterfowl Production Area, North Dakota. Photo Credit: Krista Lundgren/USFWS
