Wabaskang Lake Loons

08/01/14 - 08/30/14

I spent a month staying at Sleepy Dog Cabins and fishing Wabaskang Lake. Thanks to Tom W. and Marg for the hospitality (and the pizza) in camp. Also thanks to Tom G and Helen for letting me hang out at their place and enjoy a few fish fries. See you all again next year.

Another of my favorite things to photograph is loons and Wabaskang Lake also has quite a few loons, including many young ones born this year. I often had the chance to watch parents feeding their youngsters. It was also interesting to watch their transformation from brown and fuzzy to their adult plummage. Unfortunately, I had to leave before seeing them complete their transformations.

I took quite a few loon photos as well, so I decided to devote a page to just them. The other photos from my stay here can be found in the preceding and following photo sets.
