On my recent trip to Kamloops, we were dogged by inclement weather- cloudy skies mostly.
Loons look pretty dull in that kind of light.
We were having dinner when the clouds unexpectedly (and not forecasted) cleared. Well, it was a mad dash getting the bill paid and racing back to the lake, grabbing our gear and heading out on the water.
We got lucky and found this loon within 10 minutes.
We were able to photograph him for about 10 minutes before the sun disappeared again.
Canon 1DX 600mm

Comments and critiques always learned from and appreciated with thanks,
