Divers

I have just returned from a fishing holiday in the NW of Scotland. On climbing up to a remote hill loch, I found myself in the company of a Great Northern Diver (or Loon). A few days later I returned to the loch, but the bird had gone. However in flew a pair of Black Throated Divers, who seemed as interested in me as I was in them. Then a couple of days later we spotted a pair of Red Throated Divers on a nearby Sea Loch.
Its a bit like waiting for hours for a bus, then three turn up within minutes.
