Common Loons with 5 Week Old Chicks in Minnesota on July 3, 2016. Didn't make it up north when these chicks were born, but was able to photograph them on Sunday, July 3, 2016.

Canon 7d II w/ Canon 500mm f4 II and Canon 1.4x III from the Kayak.

No, this was in the afternoon. It was cloudy or partly cloudy most of the day and cleared up just in time for the golden hour.

Thank you.
