\"RestingResting Clark’s Grebe – Nikon D810, f8, 1\/100, ISO 400, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Autumn colors have begun to appear and they are delightful when reflected on the water with a nearly black and white subject like this resting Clark’s Grebe. Typically I would prefer an image like this more if the bill of the grebe were visible but I do like the relaxed pose and the clear view of the cherry-red eye.<\/p>\n

It won’t be all that long before these Clark’s Grebes and their cousins the Western Grebes take flight and head to warmer climes for the winter but there are still a few weeks left for me to enjoy and photograph them.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
