About These Birds

Atitlan Grebe

Atitlan Grebe (Podilymbus gigas) is an extinct large flightless grebe formerly endemic to Lake Atitlán, Guatemala. Similar to Pied-billed Grebe but larger, with heavier bill and flightless wings. Extirpated by the 1980s due to introduced bass predating chicks, reed-bed destruction, and hunting. Last confirmed individuals died in the early 1990s.

Little Grebe

アフリカ・ヨーロッパからアジアにかけての池・河川に広く分布する最小のカイツブリ(体長23〜29cm)。繁殖期の赤褐色の首と黄色い嘴基部が特徴的。Tachybaptus ruficollis(カイツブリ)は日本で最もよく見られるカイツブリで、澄んだ水の池や川に生息し、素早く潜水して魚を捕まえる。Podicipedidae科。
