p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Red throated loons in winter plumage

Up in Bar Harbor, ME last week we saw two red throated loons in the harbor by town--this was a new bird for me. (Taken with the A7R4, Sony 70-200 mk ii and 2x teleconverter, handheld in a very cold wind!):

Nice captures but I don't think they are Red-throated Loons. The Red-throats have a much finer, slightly upturned bill.

Good looking images of Common Loons, Kevin. Sorry, I hate it when a lifer turns out not to be, too.
