Little grebe

phylum	Chordata	The Little Grebe, also known as Dabchick, is the smallest European member of the grebe family of water birds. It is commonly found in open bodies of water across most of its range. This bird breeds in small colonies in heavily vegetated areas of freshwater lakes across Europe, much of Asia down to New Guinea, and most of Africa. Most birds move to more open or coastal waters in winter, but it is only migratory in those parts of its range where the waters freeze. For more information, visit the Wikipedia entry.
