Molty Loons

My adult loons are molting and getting ready for their drab winter coloring. While these photos don't have the clarity I would've liked - I wanted to share their "poses."

Interesting to watch the molting. Glad you are there to capture it for us.

Birdlady - thank you!

Jayne - I think so! (which is why I take a thousand pics of them - LOL!)

NC - Glad you don't find it boring yet!

Onedia - how lucky you are to have them in the winter! Now I'm jealous...

They are well worth sharing. I like the 2nd one best. Sometimes we are a lot harder on ourselves than other people are.

Thanks for sharing all the loon photos and stories this summer. How long do the loons stay? Will they be migrating soon?
