On the Run!
This is a Pied-billed Grebe, common in my area. They are usually found solo or in pairs and "fly" underwater catching small fish. Once in a while they take to the air. Their feet look lobed but actually it's the shape of their toes. The legs are in the back of their body which aids in their swimming and is probably the reason why I've never seen them on land. When they want to make time, they will take to the air but more often they'll run on the surface like this guy. (Podilymbus Podiceps)
