Observation details
1st year bird. Entirely pale bill, brownish/buffy colored head and nape. Pale throat, no collar. Will add digiscope photos. Located in inlet between Sitka Sedge Natural Area and Sand Lake Recreation area. Probably best accessed from the Fisherman’s Day Use Lot at Sand Lake. From my observations at this site, loon activity is greatest in the early to mid morning. I did not refind the bird at 11:00 (first viewed at 8:30). Please be aware that both sides of the inlet have actively nesting snowy plovers. Please stay in wet sand to avoid disturbing these birds.
