Little Grebe
Little Grebe could be considered the Old World equivalent of Least Grebe (T. dominicus), as it is in the same genus and is of similar size. Little Grebe is found widely in Europe, Africa, and Asia, whereas Least Grebe is primarily distributed in South and Central America. The individual in this photo is a nonbreeding bird, with brownish plumage — breeding birds have a chestnut area on the side of the head and the neck. A close look at this image shows the yellow patch at the base of the bill. The scene was the Bueng Boraphet wetlands in Nakhon Sawan province, Thailand.
