Great Northern Diver
The Great Northern Diver is the largest of the UK's divers with a bigger, heavier head and bill than its commoner relatives.
The Great Northern Diver is largely a winter visitor to the UK coast although some non-breeding birds stay off northern coasts in the summer. They start to arrive offshore in August and birds move back to their largely Icelandic breeding grounds in April and May. The largest numbers can be found off the northern and western islands of Scotland.
