Great angle and lighting show off this Common Loon (aka Great Northern Diver) family to perfection.

Photographers Comment

Dave Shaffer, Wisconsin, Nikon D3S, 200-400 mm . basic contrast and sharpening and a slight crop. This was my first opportunity to photograph loons with babies . I have always had back luck finding chicks . On this evening everything happened like magic . These proud parents wanted to show the world their babies . It was as if they wanted their picture taken . Truly a memorable and magical evening . I named this image "Happily Ever After "
