Fighting Grebe's
As the ruckus between these birds erupted I quickly lifted my camera to capture the action as two mature Red-necked Grebes went at one another for a bit. They were chest to chest and beaks were involved - ouch! I believe this to be a territorial dispute between two grebe pairs on the lake. After they quit attacking one another, one of them shook it's wings, and things appeared to return to normal.
