Is the one with the red beak a mud hen in heat? You know like the frigate birds puff up red when mating.

I'll still go with a coot pair. Can't bring the red guy into focus.

Birds


Red billed one is a common moorhen - Gallinula cloropus.

White billed is an American coot - Fulica americana.

The grebe is either a Western grebe - Aechmophorus occidentalis or a Clark's grebe - Aechmophorus clarkii, probably the former.
