Through the Lens: Yellow-billed Loon

The Yellow-billed Loon is the largest and most spectacular of the world’s five loon species.

It breeds around the globe in arctic and sub-arctic tundra lakes and is the northern counterpart to the Common Loon.

Watch this rare video shot by The Lab’s Gerrit Vyn of a mated pair calling and foraging just after arriving on the partially frozen breeding grounds in Chukotka, Russia.
