If anyone sees the bird this evening and tomorrow morning, can you please
post? I may head up tomorrow after rush hour dies down.
Thank you!

The Western Grebe was still present as of about 3:15 P.M. when I left.
Perhaps due to all the activity near the Memorial Union, it had moved
farther west. I was able to get a barely identifiable view with binoculars
from the Limnology Center and made the mistake of walking west on the
lakeshore path. The vegetation between the path and the lake blocked my
view, so I returned to the Limnology Center, this time with my scope, and
was able to get excellent scope views from the wooden pier just east of the
center. It did not seemed to be disturbed by the paddleboarders and
sailboats, so perhaps it is used to hanging out around marinas.
Nice find Paul! Thanks to all those who updated.

As of 12:25 PM it has moved west again and is west of the Limnology
building
pier. I observed it catch a few small fish near the swimming area, so I
assume it will continue to use the entire terrace area as the day
progresses.

There definitely is a Western Grebe on Lake Mendota. This morning, it
was about 100 feet from shore by the Limnology Bldg. Just west of the
pier. It moves around, diving frequently, and was not visible when
first arrived.
