this bt diver has been hanging out in the city quay area of Dundee in Scotland since Christmas,it has lost quite a bit of it,s wing but has been feeding well,it seems to be getting used to humans and is swimming /feeding closely,it ventures out into the estuary area but always comes back to the sheltered dock,it had some companions in the dock a couple of months ago slavonian grebes/red breasted mergansers ,there were also wintering divers not far off shore ,its a shame that this bird which should be with a partner on a lochan in the highlands at this time of year is confined to a dock area
