Great Northern Diver - a photo on Flickriver

            A couple of days later and another trip to Farmoor Reservoir in Oxfordshire to try and photograph the Great Northern Diver.
 
The Loon in late afternoon light.
 
The Great Northern Diver is also know as a Common Loon.

This was the last image of the day before i left.  I later received news that about 15 minutes after i left the Great Northern Diver was hooked/snagged by a fly fisherman who was drift fishing in his boat.

Much later i heard that the GND had been unhooked, de-snagged and released. It was uninjured but showing major signs of stress.
