Whatever Wednesday: Loons

Some more goodies from the sketch archives... Loons sketched at a lake in Maine where my family has vacationed for many summers. There was a healthy population of loons in the area. Sometimes a family of loons would swim right into the cove where we were staying and hang out there, and I'd sneak up on loons all over the lake in a little kayak. The loon with babies was sketched with binoculars from our cove; the one in the reeds was a kayak sketch, if I recall (complete with water damage... It's impossible to keep a sketchbook dry in a kayak!)
