This is adorable Takami!
Thank you Maria 🙂 All babies are cute, but I felt these Little Grebe chicks are especially so.
Lovely feel. How safe I am with the birds.🙂
Thank you 🙂
Hello Takami.
What a great joy it was see your lovely photos! Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!
Thank you Mr. Matti! I am happy you enjoyed this Little Grebe family. All best wishes to you and your family.
A Beautiful Blog Takami, I am sorry I did not realize your blog earlier. Beautiful family shots of the Grebe, I love the way they are carried on the backs of the parent. What species of Grebe is it Takami? It looks similar in the face to our Australasian Grebe with its breeding plumage.
Hello Ashley,
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog – it’s an honor 🙂
Yes, this is a Little Grebe family (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_grebe) and I believe it is pretty much the same as your Australasian Grebe – especially the striking golden eyes along with the breeding plumage.
We too love how they are given “piggy back rides” when tiny, and how both Mama and Papa Grebe participate in raising the chicks and keeping house 🙂 Little Grebes were my main photo project in 2019 and it was a real treat to observe them.
All best,
Takami
How beautiful!
Thank you Sylvie! I have great respect for all mothers and fathers 🙂

These intimate shots make me feel that all is good in the world, Takami. Beautiful.
Thank you Jolandi. Mother Nature never fails to give me hope. And, thank you for the info for the virtual UAE tour 🙂
A pleasure, Takami. I’m experimenting with something different. One has to in order to stay sane during these times of lockdown. I hope you are well.
Great photos!
Thank you 🙂
Welcome!

Watervogels: meer weet ik niet, want zo mooi zijn ze niet in Holland. Wij hebben veel ganzen, kijk maar op me blog Waterland. Toch, komen er veel fotografen naar Noord-, & Zuidholland speciaal voor de watervogels … , ja … * http://www.friedabblog.wordpress.com * Amsterdam, 8-5-2020, 21.20 uur … *
Thank you for your comment.
These birds are “little grebes” – I find information in the Dutch language here:

Yes, I believe there are many beautiful birds and nature in Holland. Your country is very beautiful 🙂

Please forgive my belated thank you for your kind wishes for the day. Alas, I spent it in front of my computer screen grading student papers that came in just before the end of the semester. But I am grateful to you for your kindness and for sharing such beauty. Sending my best wishes to you. 💜
