Shetland Red Necked Grebe

Having seen a summer plumage Red Necked Grebe in the north mainland towards the end of last year it was good to see the contrast of a winter plumage bird

The summer bird stayed around 8-10 weeks but this one disappeared after a day or so.
This winter bird was down among the boats at Virkie marina and gave close views unlike the summer plumaged bird which was always distant.
The light was perfect for most of the time. I used the OM1-2 with the 150-400mm lens a great combination.

The one below is a massive crop may be 80% so i am please with the result from this 4/3 camera
