Seen on its own this afternoon in Chesil Cove. Swam continously in a large rectangle from almost the beach to about 200 yds offshore. Not seen to dive but when raised up to wing stretch showed a pale belly with a distinct demarcation to the darker breast.
I've been through Scooters, Scaup and various others in my guide but can't match the strong dark bill with the redish head and breast and the pale back.
