About These Birds
Great Grebe
Great Grebe (Podiceps major) is the largest New World grebe at 70–77 cm. Long neck with chestnut-red sides in breeding plumage; dark brown above; long pointed bill. Inhabits large freshwater lakes, rivers, and coastal bays along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of South America from Peru and Brazil to Argentina. Feeds on fish by diving.
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.
