This is one of my favorite birds to spot. I don't find them often, but when I do, it's always near a pond. Fish Creek Provincial Park in Calgary has plenty of these ponds, so it seems this is the place where I encounter them the most. They are known to be found along shorelines and walking or staying perched on top of rocks.
