Interesting bird. The flanks also show a lot of white, another Clark's
feature.

Thanks for catching this David. I actually thought this was a good
candidate for a hybrid, but the ebird app in the field did not give me that
option (or at least I could not easily find it). I thought the dull
greenish bill color ruled out a pure Clark's, but the amount of white above
the lores was out of the range of a typical Western.

I would call the grebe in this excellent photo a Clark's Grebe.
What do you think?
