Black-throated Diver

Got my twitching boots on this morning for the epic 1km journey to Alton Water. No sign for the first couple of minutes, but then it popped up about 100 metres off the marina. It then spent the next hour doing a fast feeding circuit up to the dam and back round along the southern edge.

I cranked up the zoom on the bridge to max (30x) and managed some identifiable shots.
