ad male and fem. I arrived at 17.15 making several detailed passes of the lake with my scope, but these didn't appear into view until 17.53 so were possibly tucked away on the far side. Certainly still present when I left at 18.45. The pair spent most of the time snoozing on the open water, sticking close together in the strong breeze. Stunning views of them! Photo uploaded.
