[Tweeters] Yellow billed loon

[davearm at uw.edu]

Yesterday we were on the 3:30 boat out of Pt Townsend to coupeville in Admiralty Inlet. Just beyond the Pt Wilson lighthouse bird density increased and included many common murres, a few marbled murrelets, and pigeon guillemots. But the standout bird was a yellow billed loon still in breeding plumage about 100’ from the vessel. We had great views from several angles and in different lighting as the vessel approached, then passed the loon. What a huge yellow bill!
