Chausey, Normandy, France

 

This is the less common of the three Loons that can be found off the French Coasts in Wintertime

Several were visible in "Le Sound", the peaceful channel in front of Chausey Main Island, it is believed they were taking shelter from the frequent storms that have occurred in the area in the last two months, as Loons are not usually that easy to see!

Stermann & Grissemann im Moviemento bei "Immer nie am Meer". Den Film fand ich gut, aber die anschließende Fragestunde war wie immer eher quälend. Sowas klappt fast nie.

Am Schluß, nach langem Einpacken von Kameraequipment und Herumkramen in Herrenhandtasche, stand zwischen dem rettenden Ausgang und mir noch ein Team vom Lokalfernsehen LT1. Als letzter Gast im Saal, eh klar, Pech, peinliches Interview, das hoffentlich niemals nie gesendet wird. Naja.

I lost all the proper immer shots (and all scaup shots) because of a deficient memory card. I stopped using Kingston cards when this happened last year with california quails in Point Reyes, Ca. Sadly, I now learned that I'm not safe with Sandisk either. I can't even remember the last time being as pissed off as I was...

My first book, entitled Shorebirds of Ireland will be in your shops soon!!!

 

The Great Northern Diver, known in North America as the Common Loon (Gavia immer), is a large member of the loon, or diver, family of birds. The Great Northern Diver breeds in Canada, parts of the northern United States, Greenland, and Alaska. There is a smaller population (ca. 3,000 pairs) in Iceland. The voice and appearance of the Common Loon has made it prominent in several Native American tales. These include a story of a loon which created the world in a Chippewa story; a Micmac saga describes Kwee-moo, the loon who was a special messenger of Glooscap, the tribal hero; native tribes of British Columbia believed that an excess of calls from this bird predicted rain, and even brought it; and the tale of the loon’s necklace was handed down in many versions among Pacific Coast peoples. Folk names include big loon, black-billed loon, call-up-a-storm, ember-goose, greenhead, guinea duck, imber diver, ring-necked loon, and walloon.

 

A stunning bird. Taken near Lake Myvatan, Iceland.

Der ICE 3 ist inzwischen schon 20 Jahre alt. Und trotzdem sehen sie von allen ICEs immer noch am modernsten aus, was v.a. an ihrem Stromlinienförmigen Design liegt.

Looks like there were 2 but they were way out so hard to tell.

Not bad for first day of spring.

I had taken a canoe out on a Lake Placid/East Lake, NY so I could get close to loons and spend some time watching and photographing these beautiful birds.

Immer wieder nett, was man da so alles findet.

Immer wieder interessant, wo es überall rosten kann.

I didn't know that they can rust even here...

Immer noch trocken...

immer noch Versuche - still trying

Nice to see the sea ducks, grebes and loons out at Tsawwassen Jetty these days, but I really wish they would come in closer to shore so I can get a decent photo! Here's a couple of my "best I can do" gets.
