Loon photos from Lake Dunmore, Vermont

Joey–

I am loath to leave Gloucester in the summer, but I make an annual exception for Lake Dunmore, Vermont.

Here are a couple of photos of some great northern loons that I took while kayaking on the lake.  These loons are closely related to our cormorants, and are magnificent animals.

Thanks!

That would make an awesome canvas print vertically.

I’d call Cape Ann Giclee and see about getting it done in a canvas wrap.

Hi Joey

Really enjoyed the Wonderfront Festival at Stage Fort Park today and stopping by your booth for a mason jar. 

Today’s sunset was incredible and here’s a couple of pictures of what it looked like from Rust Island if you’d like to use them.   I enjoy reading GMG every morning.  Keep up the great stories and fantastic photos.
