Many dangers and difficulties that must be overcome in order for the chicks to grow.
The rigors of such a life are introduced through the breeding of grebes.

"Never giving up on building a nest"
Little Grebe Parenting 'Nesting Without Giving Up'
The first pair of grebes to spawn in 2018 at Inokashira Park in Tokyo. I thought everything was going smoothly, but just before the eggs hatched, the nest was swept away and collapsed along with the eggs.
All the parent birds' hard work for a month was wasted.
Despite this, the pair did not give up, changed the location and rebuilt the nest, and successfully raised three chicks.
We will introduce how such a strong grebe struggles.
