I went down to Maxey fishing lakes on about five occasions last weekend in an attempt to photograph the juvenile Great Northern Diver, which has been residing there since the turn of the year. I found the bird really wary and nigh on impossible to get close to - every time I got anywhere near, it would just motor back in to the middle of the lake. Nice animal though.
Sounds like you are getting nearly as obsessed as me Josh! It is a wary bird, doesn't take much for it to disappear, very frustrating!
