Here is a shot of a Common loon feeding its chick a small fish. I followed this family from my kayak for a few months. There were two chicks and both survived the summer.
Handheld from kayak, Canon 1DX, Canon 300 f/2.8 IS II + 2xTCIII at f/8, 1/2000, ISO 1000
Intimate photo, nice low angle, perfect timing of the feeding. I'd prefer a little more room around them and a better body angle from the parent. Nice work, Geoff and great news of the chicks.
What an excellently timed shot and such detail!
I know loons sit low in the water but having it so tight to the left just looks a bit strange, and in that respect I echo Lorant's comments.
