    We usually find lots of Red-throated Loons in Nome, and lots of Pacific Loons in Barrow. It's always a treat to find the opposite species at either location. This year there was a very cooperative Pacific in Nome.

    Good that you got low to get the bird above the blue makes it more interesting
    superb looking eye and the wing flap looks fantastic.

    Lovely light, pose and low angle. It's nice to see a wing flap from a different angle.
