Black-throated Diver

I fancied a bit of fresh air after eating far too much yesterday, so this afternoon I headed off to Swithland Res in search of the immature Black-throated Diver that had been there a couple of days. It was still there and it came in close occasionally. However, in sunny conditions the light is a bit harsh near the dam and today it was sunny.

It was feeding on small fish although it had to compete with a pack of Great Crested Grebes to get the fish.
