Old Ruby Eyes is Back

Today I checked out Scarborough Harbour where two species of Diver have recently been reported.  I was reminded just how long these birds spend under water, and the vast distances they travel whilst doing so.  The Great Northern Diver was spotted first and I moved to the Harbour Wall from where the light should have been better.
