Back at the Razorbill

On Sunday 17th February, I went back to Asda in the morning, this time with bright sunshine and sure enough the fabulous Razorbill (does the relative lack of white loral line and relatively short bill especially noticeable at some angle indicate this is a first winter bird?) was again on Lake Lothing this time just off Asda at Lowestoft. It showed really well and at point blank range swimming right next to the balustrade bank. So at times I was looking straight down at it. It swam out and showed well where it frequently dived. As usual I ran into place when it dived to avoid any disturbance, although it was very confiding at time being seen at point blank range) A passing boat pushed it again towards the balustrade. It would dive every few minutes and would spend several minutes under water before resurfacing. I noticed it would crouch very low over the water just prior to diving. It some times several minutes under water before resurfacing usually just a few metres away. Marvellous to spend over an hour with this lovely bird.
