This afternoon we heard two loons being very noisy out in front of our house. Mark grabbed the camera, a humongous lens, and a tripod - and captured these images of one of them.
We hear loons almost daily, but they're usually on the next bay over. It was very fun to have them here - even though they stayed quite far from shore.
I'm guessing that's seaweed in his/her mouth.

My passion is gardening - but I also enjoy kayaking, reading, cooking, travel, and playing with the two poodles who live with us. Email me at kkgardens AT gmail DOT com.
