Walked across the barrage this morning and was lucky to see a female Goosander close in to the inner shore, so got a couple of nice shots. As the Barry Docks Black-throated Diver had been reported whilst we were having coffee at the far end, I nipped over there too. It turned up whilst we were away at Christmas so was pleased to see that it was still present. It was pretty obliging and gave the best views I’ve ever had of any species of diver.
