To follow up on Scott's post. The Pacific Loon was observed by multiple observers (see below) after
painstakingly scanning through what seemed like 1000 loons. As Scott Hannan mentioned, the weather made for difficult
viewing, but we had at least 2 lengthy views of the Loon, with the last one being near perfect, and with better light.
Good luck to all who might still consider finding this bird.
See you on the trails,
