About

Small numbers can be found year round although most likely between October - May. The large, heavy, dagger like bill and square looking head help disinguish this diver from other species.
Scan the sea from the north side of the sea defence on the coastal road at Stoneybridge. Regularly seen catching crabs and flat fish in coastal waters in all months of year
