That leg looks like it’s connected where the wing ought to be. Very cute.

very nice. Good view of them loon and chick. Very cute. Good detail good composition. These birds are hard to get because the heads are always so dark in the plumage is difficult to image.

I’m seeing a water drop on Tubby’s leg, so maybe he’s just tired after a swim, not spoiled rotten! What a fine moment to capture, and I don’t see any problems with the shot - in fact, it’s excellent.

Mike, I don’t see how this little one could swim… I envision more like it bobbing around freely like a cork!

Sandy: Almost wants me to start shooting birds! A beautiful creature and moment superbly captured. >=))>

Wonderful capture Sandy. Great look at both the adult and chick. Fine exposure and details. Really well done.

Really fine capture. Nice extra touch with the rider. If it were mine I would look at ever so slightly dodging both of their heads just to give them a slight pop. Great shot.
