I stopped at Dry Lake on my way home today and saw, among the billions of
american coots, 3 Pie-billed Grebes.  I believe this is the first time I've
ever seen them or at least noticed them.  I thought they were some kind of
Coot mutant, but after watching how much time they spent underwater, I
realized they were something different.  If anyone is interested, I saw them
on the west side of the highway close to the fence.   Below is my e-bird
report of what I saw this evening.   happy birding to all!
