Loons usually look black and white but they really have green on their head and neck. In this portrait taken from a kayak, the sun is very low in the afternoon shining on this gal bringing out the details and green. I was amazed when I saw this. Portrait of one of God’s amazing creatures.

We usually think of Blue Herons feeding on fish but this guy was caught carrying away a chipmunk from my hosta garden. We have had a lot of rain in Illinois and the lakes are full and cloudy. Fishing is difficult. When a guy gets hungry he needs to eat.
