Were all 4 juveniles? May be worth a note on the chatline

I don't know. They were a long way away. I didn't pay much attention. I assumed they were Australasian grebe. When I looked at 2 photos on the computer screen, I realised that they weren't Australasian grebe. I was there this morning. Didn't see any great crested, only 2 hoary-headed.
