I know the Western Grebe in front but what are the other three? Sorry, about the picture quality.

Pied-billed Grebes, an adult and two just out of the nest. Oh, and that's not a Western Grebe in the front -- look closer.

Yeah the one in the front is a Clark's; Orange-ish bill, light flanks, and black cap stops before the eye. . .
