Outstanding outdoor/wildlife photograph! Looks like it should be on the cover of a outdoor/hunting/fishing magazine. Very well done. * * * F/L

There are a few photos or images that when you first see them, you give that little gasp....this is definitely one of them. I don't know where to start with my praise and comments. As a birdwatcher, my eyes are drawn to the magnificent loon, and the ripples in the water behind it. Then, the fabulous sunrise. But my eye still comes back to the bend of the grasses in the foreground. Just a wonderful image. Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
Penny Meyers replied:
Karen, that was how I felt the moment I took this shot! I was hoping to catch a beautiful sunrise and was beyond thrilled when this loon decided to join me. I am so grateful for your visit and very kind comments, thank you so much!!

This just takes my breath away, Penny!!! I can just about hear that haunting call of the loon announcing the dawn of a glorious new day! Outstanding capture! L/F/T/G+/P

You are so sweet, Hanne!! Thank you so much for your kind words and generous promotion! Indeed, the loon was calling, and the morning was as perfect as one could imagine! There are truly few sweeter sounds than the call of a loon.
