Certainly not going to be on the cover of a magazine but I posted
a digiscope photo of the Western Grebe I had on Cherokee Lake
Sunday.  In my defense, it was taken from about 1/2 mile away
in fading light.  Not the greatest for distinguishing between
Western/Clark's but I think it does show the extent of the black
around the eye.  Hopefully someone else will get the bird too
and get some better photos.

A couple of notes:

This is the 5th grebe species I've had around Cherokee Dam
(Pied-billed, Horned, Eared, Red-necked, and now Western).

On the Brewer's Blackbirds, I said they flew west, that should
have been 'east'.  Got turned around in my haste to post.
