Horned Grepe (Podiceps auritus)

Two Horned Grebes fighting over territory in lake Myvatn. Like all grebes, it builds a nest on the water's edge, since its legs are set very far back and it cannot walk well. Usually two eggs are laid, and the striped young are sometimes carried on the adult's back.
