Observation details
Smaller than the Common Loon, but still looks very much like a loon, diving frequently. Kept its head tilted up with gave the impression of an upturned bill. Dark nape, almost looked reddish, but it might have been the light at sunset. Bright white flanks visible when the water rose and fell, lifting the bird to make the body visible. Distant photos.
