Podicipediformes	World Map	Parvclassis : Neognathae
	Orders

An order with just one family and only 21 species, they are some of the worlds most beautiful and interest birds. There courtship displays are a delight. There are 22 species listed below but sadly the Atitlan Grebe is now extinct thanks to the introduction of large and small mouth bass into its only haunt Lake Atitlan. I hope we will learn before we do much more damage to the creatures that we share this planet with.

Then there was twenty

Today it was announced that the Alaotra Grebe is officially extinct on the Red List.
