beautiful photos, beautiful bird!

I grew up spending summers in Georgian Bay. I miss it so much and one of the things I miss are the Loons every summer. I haven't had the chance to see one in years now.

Thank's Jake I'm in Minden just below Algonquin Park and Have some very cooperative Loon's on the lake. Hope to get some great stuff this summer.

Love these captures, Jeff.
They brought a flurry of memories to mind.
I lived in Beautiful BC for a few years after getting out of the military and can still hear the haunting call of the loon.
Gorgeous!

Thank's Barry, the Loon seem's to haunt the memory's of meany!!

I've never seen or heard a loon. This video plays the call that you're all talking about. (external link) It sounds a lot like wolves.

You don't know what your missing, I hope someday you get to hear the Loon in the wild!!

More beautiful captures of the Loon.
OhLook, I've seen and heard the video of the Loon, although good, there is nothing like being there with them on a Northern lake surrounded by Pine Forests on a calm and foggy night, wonder how much company Jeff might have if he keeps posting these pics.
When they pass through my area they very seldom make a call, and they are few and far between, may see one or two a year on my nearby lake.

You see Steve you really understand the northern lake's. I'm in Algonquin Park right now and the sun heating the big pine's and the smoke from the camp fire have a way of making the soul feel at ease.

Well I have to say I really like the way they have a darker more evening look!!

Thank's Peter, you need a trip to Canada
