Thank you very much, Ricky! These guys are amazing and you always shoot them in the most beautiful places. Looking forward to seeing your photos - good luck!!
I appreciate this nice collection, knowing first hand how hard it is for many variables to come together to shoot loons and young: Boat position and stability, lighting angle / sun harshness and exposure challenges with the black and white adults, position of multiple birds and depth of field issues, flat water, age of chicks, tolerance of the tending adults, anticipation of feeding sequence, head angles of multiple birds, etc. Really hard.

Congrats.
Thank you so much, Bruce! I just looked at your Flickr - fantastic wildlife and sports photos and great loon galleries! Funnily enough, I was getting paid to shoot sports prior to COVID...
