Such a guilty shock to see a nesting loon! I felt we were violating its space and privacy even though we were not very close. Garry was paddling stern and I had my big zoom lens, so I did manage a few photos as we changed course to leave the area. She didn’t let on if she did notice us, and her mate must have been off carousing. We saw him come in for a landing on the lake some time later.

This is an amazing shot, Jo-Ann!
