[HuntingNY-News]

"I had the unique opportunity of have one land right in front of my kayak and later to have two loons take off in good light. The belly landing of this 9-13 pound bird was a sight to see."

Greg Craybas, of Marcellus, a dentist with the passion for shooting photos of wildlife, sent in this spectacular picture of a loon and wrote the following:

"I am back from my family vacation in Old Forge NY. I managed to get out several times on my kayak equipped with a trolling motor. It allowed me to get very close to the loons with out stressing the birds.
