Loon Hunkered Down for Flyover

I was blown away by your reaction to yesterday's sunset. Thanks so much. I've never seen a loon in this posture before. He seemed to be a bit intimidated by the red breasted merganser flying over him. This is severely cropped.
Thanks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs

That is an interesting posture for a Loon. He looks like he is ducking out of the way.

A great capture of the little scared loon and that bully of a grebe!
