Pacific Loon
Was able to quietly get into the water with my waders without disturbing this nesting Pacific Loon. As I sat quietly at 12:30am in the morning, taking advantage of the never setting sun of Arctic Region, I was able to capture this Loon rotating the eggs. Both the male and female will set on the nest. While I sat the female waited her turn in the distance.
