Grebe, Podicipedidae, are a type of waterfowl and is the only type of bird associated with the order Podicipediformes. There are 22 species of these birds including the Hooded Grebe, Great Crested Grebe, Horned Grebe, and Hoary-headed Grebe. These birds live all around the world except for the polar regions. The North American and Eurasian species of Grebe are migratory. They prefer habitats with sources of water such as ponds, rivers, freshwater lakes, and sometimes wintering along ocean coasts. These narrow-winged birds are excellent swimmers and divers. Some of the species are reluctant flyers, even so far as having two South American species that are completely flightless. When threatened, these birds will resort to diving under the water rather than flying away. They have legs located further back on their bodies, making it difficult to walk at times, with lobed feet. These lobed feet are not webbed, but rather have thick bulbs of flesh edging their anterior digits that expand or contract when they swim. They have been seen swimming with only their heads above water. A Grebe's diet consists of mollusks, fish, and crustaceans and have even been seen to eat insects and their own feathers along with plucking them to feed to their young. Although not entirely known why, it is thought that this aids in pellet formation and reduces their vulnerability to gastric parasites. These feathers are dense and waterproof, sitting at right angles to the skin on the underside of the feather then sticking straight out before curling at the tip. They are able to adjust their buoyancy by pressing their feathers against their body. A grebe's feathers are often plain colored in whites and dark browns, however, many will have colorful and distinctive plumage for impressing others during the breeding season. Some species will meet to mate in freshwater lakes and ponds while others will gather along the seacoasts. Grebes are so water oriented that they will make unique nests that float out on the waters surface among reeds and consisting of plant materials. The young are prococial, which means they are born relatively able to take care of themselves, even able to swim from birth.
