I have several more loon images to post after these.
First, May is a busy month for Common Loons. They are highly territorial. On this first pond of my boyhood just one nesting pair is tolerated. And this pond is about 2 miles long and 1/4 mile wide. So the nesting pair claims a large area and will defend it.... if they can. During May they thrash out who will be the nesting pair.
Mating is about to happen and this nesting adult is preparing the nest.
