Today I traveled a few miles north up I-75 to try for my first Red-necked Grebe at Reba Lake Park in Madison County, Kentucky. Reba Lake is 150 miles north of Knoxville in Richmond, KY, just 3-4 miles from exit 87. It was well worth the drive. The grebe was easily seen from the boat ramp area in the park and was at times quite close. The scope came in handy but if you don't have one, you can proably still get decent looks at the grebe. It has been there since at least February 17. Also on the small lake were 7 scaup and a male Common Goldeneye.
