Red-throated Diver

The biologist Jörg Hemmer presents a comprehensive portrait of the Red-throated Diver, also known as Red-throated Loon (Gavia stellata), with sections on evolution, habitats, reproduction, diet, migration, population numbers, and conservation. Captivating photographs document the family life and the spectacular territorial behaviour of this charismatic traveller between fresh and saltwater.
