Common Loon In "Stealth Mode"

I love getting shots of the loons like this one. When they see a grebe, duck, etc., infringing on their territory, they will flatten out on the water and start stalking them. When they get close enough, they submerge and attack from under water.

This shot has been cropped some to help show off the beauty of the loon.

Camera Settings: f/5 - 1/400 - 280mm - ISO 320
