"First Date" These Red Necked Grebes were courting and nest-building in Anchorage, AK. People ask how I capture "special" moments with my photography. PATIENCE, waiting, standing very still for 90 minutes or more....and WATCHING the beautiful things transpire in front of my eyes. I love this video.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MudM2AzZ-4&feature=youtu.be ©2012 Lisa Langell. All Rights Reserved.

"Simple Gifts" Red Necked Grebes, when courting, offer gifts to one another as a sign of interest and affection. The female, in this case, is offering reeds and underwater plants to the male. They were courting on Goose Lake in Anchorage, AK in May 2012. This image was chosen to be one of the Top 100 images in the North American Nature Photography Association (NANPA) 2013 Showcase competition, out of over 2400 images submitted by photographers across the continent. ©2012 Lisa Langell.
