A rare sighting



This is one of the reasons I hate to miss my daily walk at the marsh. I never know what I might see. Although I have heard loons calling out on the French Basin several times while walking the trail, I have never seen one at the marsh before. This one wasn't actually in the marsh proper, but rather in the cove at the sail school which borders the marsh property. I heard splashing as I walked the path that separates the two properties, and what I heard was this loon diving for fish. These two shots show the fish it caught. I couldn't identify the broad, flat fish, but perhaps someone out there can??
