Black-necked Grebe. Newlyn Harbour



This winter plumaged Black-necked Grebe has been frequenting Newlyn Harbour over the last few weeks. I caught up with it today while it was taking time out to straighten out a few feathers.

Great Northern Diver. Newlyn Harbour

On a visit to Newlyn Harbour today three Great Northern Divers were on view. When these Divers enter the harbour they often give good views, this one came incredibly close probably due to the fishing net that had become tangled around it's feet. Thankfully it was captured and the net removed by local birder Linton Proctor before being returned back to the water. So all turned out well in the end!  Well done Linton!
