Rick has pointed out my, um, confusion.  The bird I saw at Triadelphia
this afternoon was a Red-Necked Grebe.

It was elusive.  I first saw it from Greenbridge at the boat ramp, looking
toward the dam.  It was to the right.  Long-necked grebe with big, honking
whitish cheeks, extending back and up.  It then flew and landed in front of
dam.  After fumbling with camera, unsucessfully, I lost it.  Got back in
the car, went to the dam, and there it was, a short distance out from the
dam.  While trying to locate it with the scope, in hopes of a picture, it
spooked and flew, heading back left and of sight.  In the space of 15
minutes, this bird flew three times.
