Observation details
Great view of a nonbreeding adult foraging in shallow water along the rocky shore inside the Marina. The loon repeated the process of dipping half of its head including eyes into the water, swimming forward to search for fish, and dashing with incredible speed and distance underwater to chase fish. With the shallow water and close view, this is such a great chance to watch the foraging behavior. I also observed for the first time Red-throated Loon raising its lower eyelid to close its eyes : )
