2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Common Loon, Fish Lake, Northern Michigan, United States of America
Loon In The Mist

Species: Common Loon | Location: Fish Lake, Northern Michigan, United States of America

Stopped pontoon boat due to dense, early morning fog. Filtered lighting started coming thru the fog. Initially thought subject was a Mallard, but a bit more light and better definition, and could see by the head that it was a Loon. Waited until sun bounced off chest and we had Loon wing flap. Awesome to see and capture!
