Spotted today in Central Ohio. Not the greatest pics, but he was dodging in and out of the foliage so much that I thought I missed him altogether until I got home and double-checked. Thanks for your opinions!

They are such fun birds to watch stalk the edge of ponds! Nice shots!

There was a pair; I'm going back to the same pond tonight, hoping they're regulars, and hoping to get better shots.

There were at least 5 individuals, and not a one of them the least bit interested in posing for photos - but I did manage to get one :)
