A Great Crested Grebe stands on its nest, facing to the right. The nest is made of waterweed and reeds, contains a single white egg, and floats on the water surrounded by reeds. The bird has a white breast and underparts, brown back, and black wings, It has a white face, long orange/brown cheek feathers, and a black crest on the top of its head. Its long, elegent neck is curled up rather than being stretched out.

This Great Crested Grebe may not be showing off its #LongNeck for #BirdOfTheDay but it is happy to show off its egg!
