A very attentive mother Common Loon was demonstrating her protective side. They were a little far out to get a nice close up but it was still a thrill to watch her feed, teach and protect these two baby loons.

A beautiful capture of the mother loon guarding her young. From near or far it's always a thrill to spot the loons and you caught her in a great pose here. I have one I might upload, but it was a long shot too, which seems to be the way things go when it comes to the loons :) The babies show up very nicely in the zoom view too :) A beautiful capture Debra.
I too have tried to capture one of the loons on our lake. Like you, too far away. Early this spring one sailed by ten feet from my bank. Of course no camers !
Nice pose of the loon Debra. He stand out well against the pale water color. Like your storyline as well. It is the right time of the season for motherhood pictures. I have some here at the marsh but like for you, they always stay too far for a 400mm close up. Keep on trying. One day we will have our chance.
o good timing on that one i see the baby's as wall
