The lake was turning to liquid gold, and right on cue, a silhouette broke the surface. This is the Common Loon in its full breeding regalia. The evening light catches the iridescent green of the head and the sharp checkered pattern on the back. In this light, they aren't just birds; they’re the soul of the northern wilderness. Silence is key here—we were just guests in it's world tonight
