That loon is very photogenic!

 

[zombiesniper]

Yes it is. It also helps that it really didn't care about us at all.

Love the loon shots, that red eye really sets it apart!

 

[zombiesniper]

Thank you.

Yes they have a great look.

Nice set there, ZS, my favorite is #2. The head position for a good angle on the eye for the win!

Nice set!

Very nice set. And yes, they are very photogenic.

So that's a red throated loon? I got shots of one like this while up north this summer. They're not as big as the typical loon and thought it was an immature one. My brother kept saying that's not a loon. Now I'll have to go back and look at those shots closer. May have a new bird to check off. Thanks for the info.

Thank you.

Hope you have a new/old lifer.

Good set. Just love loons. Don't see them here often enough.

Did see some Brent geese a few weeks ago near my local beach for the first time.
