They sit low in the water with their slender necks erect. There is an elaborate courtship display involving head shaking with head feathers raised. The two birds approach in a shallow underwater dive. They then rise up, shake their heads together and turn away.<\/p>\n<p>Like other grebes they dive for food and can stay underwater for up to a minute. Grebes build floating nests of reeds. After the young hatch, they ride on the back of one parent while the other brings food to them. One brood per season.
