CommentRare for me to see these birds feeding so was happy to get close and wait for birds to return. Objective was to try to get the launching dive with bill entering water, I didn't succeed as it happens so quickly. However I did get lots of shot and some I was happy with. Diffiicult task with multple birds feeding in the one area, hard to seperate one bird from the pack without some intrusion. In this the diving bird had another emerging behind as I shot. No way of removing it so I had to be satified with the result..
