It's not always the fish that makes a great fishing trip.

I had one morning to take a fast trip to the lake.

Fish were biting, but mostly small.  They kept me amused at least.

But then something appeared at the side of my boat.

An American Loon and her baby.

These very wary birds usually move away when you approach them.  Not this time.   10 feet from the boat and Mom kept fishing and feeding the baby.  What a sight and so close.

Made for some great photo's.

 

These photo's were taken early morning and the lighting wasn't so great.

How cute.  The lighting's not bad really.  Don't you love the sound of a loon over the lake in the evening?
