Clark's grebes with two chicks and one fish on Lake Almanor, Plumas County, California.

Although Northern California got quite a lot of rain last winter, only 100 chicks hatched this year from 700 nests on Lake Almanor. Why? The water level dropped too rapidly due to a release that occurred a few weeks before this photo was taken. These two chicks were among the 100 that hatched in the three days before the release.

The grebes whose first nesting attempts failed were building new nests. Perhaps their second nesting attempt will be successful.

Sandy. In my sickness she has been a constant companion and comfort. Things seem to be taking a turn for the better, but we're still waiting.

Also, we're very saddened today at news of the passing of dear old Chester. Rest peacefully friend.

I stopped by Abby's nest this past Monday and was happy to finally see that there were what I thought was 2 chicks .

At this young age they spend most of their time laying low, so I'd never get more than a glimpse of one popping up for a second or two before disappearing again.

On Tuesday I stopped back when I had more time to observe.

John showed back up with lunch, flew into the nest for a minute, and then took back off to sit on a pole and make sure the fish was no longer flapping, before bringing it back to the kids.

When I was checking the series of shots I took as he was flying off with the fish, this was the very last shot in the series....and the only one that revealed that there are actually not two, but THREE chicks!! Triplets! How cool!
