I just added a few Common Loon photos to my web site, that I shot about two weeks ago, in northern Minnesota. Anyone interested in viewing the images can click on this link, and the respective thumbnail images. Note: This loon was very acclimated to people and although some photos show her off the nest, she simply left the nest to pluck more nest material, which we watched her add to her nest.. She showed no interest in us at all.. The nest was a couple miles down the lake from our camp site, and although the egg hatched, we only discovered this during our final evening there, and did not have enough time to locate the mother and youngster. All images were taken with hand-held camera, from canoe. http://www.smedesphoto.com/common_loon_gallery.htm Ty Smedes [email protected] Ty Smedes Nature Photography 4732 72nd Street Urbandale Iowa 50322-1148 phone: 515-270-9086
