Loon landing on a dull Easter morning
Apr 12, 2020 10:53:07 #
I saw a loon way out on the lake early morning. It was a dull dark morning but I decided to try to get a shot and went outside with the 600mm and just as I got out there I saw another loon coming in for a landing. I spun the shutter dial to ramp up the speed which turned the shots into a basic B&W which I kind of
like given the dull day and early hour. The first shot I was still moving on but I was glad to get the sequence.

They all have their different ways of landing. I haven't seen that one before. Thanks for sharing. vz

Great shots woodsman.....good thing he didn't dip a nose, that would have been a National Geographic moment.

Good timing on these. Nice set!

Nice landing sequence. These birds are unique in that their bones are not hollow making them heavier than ducks for their size. Landing speeds tend to be higher and they ride/float lower in the water.
