BRITISH BIRDS. 



This species is not numerous in the British isles. 

 Pennant says, they inhabit and breed in the fens 

 near Spalding, in Lincolnshire, and that the female 

 makes a nest not unlike that of the Crested Grebe, 

 and lays four or five small white eggs. This Grebe 

 is found in the northern regions of Europe, as far 

 as Iceland, and is also met with in southern 

 climates.
