I'm sure someone got better photos of this bird but I thought I'd share a few 
blurry photos of the bird just so you might get a feel for its shape and 
look. It is a very big bird and once, we watched it start a very long run on 
the 
water and take flight. Compared to the other loons seen in flight it looked 
like the lumbering flight of the fabled Spruce Goose.

I threw in the Merlin just because the bird was so cooperative.
