This bird has some of the most devoted parents in the bird world.
The Red-necked Grebe is famous for the way both parents care for their chicks. Young birds often ride safely on their parents’ backs, tucked among the feathers, while mom and dad take turns carrying, protecting, and feeding them.
A model family of the wetlands, yet one of nature’s most attentive parents.
