Great Crested Grebe

One of the pair at my local Village Pool. Always a smart bird to see.

 
this non native critter decided to show itself from the murky depths of the pool to sun itself
 
Red Eared Terrapin

The grebe's upright pose suggests that he is alart to something. Love the colours in this photo. And the terrapin looks so cute.

a nice close-up of the Grebe, and interesting to see your R.E. Terrapin sunbaking...

How fortunate to have such a lovely waterfowl around. Nice turtle, too.
