There is something about loons that just catch our attention. It could be their black and white bold patterning or maybe it’s their unique parenting skills where they protect their young by having the young loon chick ride on their backs.

The New England Photography Guild is proud to show you our view of this remarkable bird. These images have been taken in various spots around New England. Please don’t ask where because as John Vose wrote in his article, “Man is one of the biggest factors in the decline of the loons in New England.”
