Nice to see my favorite birds this early in the season. Our loons in Michigan are just starting to hatch in the southernmost extent of their range, and several weeks to go further north. When was this one taken?
I like the red eye, water beads, relatively low shooting angle. Food transfer all good.
Perhaps a bit tight. Is this full frame?
Look forward to more.
Cheers

Hi Randy,
I got this and around 2000 more images this Sunday in central MN. Weather was great, the Loons were cooperative. I only wish I could have got down closer to the water, but I was in my friend's motor boat, and it had pretty tall sides. It was almost full frame, I cropped some from the right side, it didn't look right, kind of unbalanced, and my eyes were drawn to the chicks butt haha. More loons coming soon!

Maybe a little tight, but certainly very sweet. Adult is beautiful with the nice details over all and the water droplets. Nice feeding behavior too. Well done.

Great the way you have captured all those water droplets and the interaction between adult and juvenile.Nice detail on the head and that eye really makes it.

Lovely frame Michael. The water drops throughout the image make it. Well done
