Hello All,

 

It has been fun watching and photographing the nesting common loon (see earlier post) and I am happy to say the egg has successfully hatched. I captured the following images when the chick was either 5 or 6 days old, back on July 3rd.

Here is the chick at age 16/17 days. They certainly do grow quickly!

And here is a short video I shot:

 

 

 

Equipment used was a Canon 7d and Sigma 150-500mm telephoto.

 

For those interested, photographic prints of some of these images are available for purchase on my website: www.JustinHoffmanOutdoors.com

 

Happy Shooting,

Justin
