Swan Pool - Great Northern Diver

The next destination saw Sandwell and Swan Pool for the Great Northern Diver. The Diver didn't have as far to hide relative to the Mere and being a smaller body of water, was always visible but wide ranging! The light was tricky but I selected a suitable spot and waited......



The waiting game paid off :-)








Sadly, I didn't see it catch a single fish! A single wingflap was the height of activity.




There must be fish in there?


A move in the right direction!


Droplets!


Lots of tiny ones here.....


But then time to move on.....



A bit of a non event thereafter with Stubber's Green having been completely flushed :-) Nothing of note at Priorslee lake either where I'd missed an earlie Caspo. Oh well - more to come.....
