I came upon this beautiful loon keeping its eye out for its mate and baby chick while kayaking Woodbury Pond, part of a chain of connecting ponds in Litchfield, Maine called Tacoma Lakes. It was especially calm and serene with beautiful reflections on the surface of the water. Common loons are larger than the other loon species. Adults are 28 to 35 inches (70 to 90 centimeters) long with a wingspan of 60 inches (152 cm). Their weight ranges from 3.5 to 17.6 lbs. (1.6 to 8 kilograms). Common loons breed in forested lakes and large ponds found in Greenland, Iceland and northern North America. Once the ice begins to freeze the loons will migrate and winter along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of North America, Iceland and Europe. The adults will not return to fresh water until spring when they are ready to breed once again in the spring.
