report
While accessing all the damage to the shoreline that the high spring waters caused this gorgeous loon swam to within 10 feet of me. She was mor intent on catching a minnow and not worried about my presence at all. The loons seem to be a lot more at ease with humans than the merganer ducks do.

You ar so very lucky to have this loon come so close for you to capture this amazing Portrait. Very nice with great detail and color.
Hi Debra: I am back after a long break due to Covid. No Grizzlies in my yard !!! I do have loons in my lake and I long to get close enough to photograph them. You did a masterful job capturing the markings and that delightful red eye. All the best... Jenny
A stunning close-up of this gorgeous Loon, Debra. You captured the detail of her markings and the deep red colour of her eyes perfectly here against the ripples. Very well done! I wish the Loons on my favorite hill top lake were as at ease with humans as this one was with your presence. Sorry to learn of the damage that the flooding has caused in your region too.
Great shot Debra. You had an opportunity to capture it at very close range and you nailed it perfectly. With the zoom option, even the black head shows beautyfull color tones and details. This is experience. Very well done.
