  • Large flock of Great Crested Grebe

    I am 8 years old. On my first bird-watching trip to North Queensland my dad and I saw 118 Great Crested Grebes in a single flock at Lake Barine on the Atherton Tablelands. This was on the 29th September 2010. Some were diving down to catch fish and coming up with fish in their beaks. There was a mixture of adults and immature grebes.

    We were amazed to see so many together! Is this unusual?
