adamsii)
Place: Colorado River, Lake Havasu, AZ, USA
Date: March 5, 2002
Equipment: Nikon N90S, Nikkor AF-S 300/2.8 & TC20E (=
600/5.6)
Film: Fujichrome Sensia 100
Exposure: aperture priority matrix metered, natural light

Commentary: The Yellow-billed Loon is a very rare bird
anywhere in the Lower 48, but recently has been seen with more
frequency inland in the western US. This is part of series of photos
I took there on a 430 mile day trip to see and photograph it.
