Comments:

Not a survey but a historical observation that Western grebes are an uncommon yet regular breeder, building 7 colonies in the Sandhill Lakes marshes (not specified which lakes or marshes). Very general description of 2 to 34 pairs (X2 for estimated number of adults and as is for # nests) but usually 5 to 12 pairs. No years nor other details provided.
