Common Loon prepping for flight. Landing gear down, propulsion engaged, and we have lift off. I was so excited because I’ve never seen a Common Loon so far from the ocean (over 100 miles).
I took this image from my kayak as a pair came swimming by fairly close to me. As long as I had no sudden movements, they really didn't seem to mind my presence.

Backyard bird
Wikipedia: The common flameback (Dinopium javanense), also referred to as the common goldenback, is a small (28–30 cm), three-toed woodpecker in the family Picidae, found throughout South and Southeast Asia.
As shy and secretive birds, common flamebacks are unlikely to be found in urban areas. They live in a variety of habitats, ranging from moist open forests, to scrubs, and mangroves. Although they generally enjoy lowlands, they can reach altitudes of 1700m above sea level in India and in those cases prefer living in pine forests.
Their distribution ranges across Southeast Asia, from the Western Ghats in India to the Indochinese peninsula and several of the Greater Sunda Islands.
Conservation status: Least Concern
A short get-away to British Columbia earlier this summer started my love affair with these beautiful birds. This photo shows their summer breeding plumage. They have become my favorite to photograph and I love their haunting calls. You can listen to them below.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.
