Loons: Family Gaviidae
This family has only 5 members, all in genus Gavia. Loons are large goose-sized diving birds that are mostly found in the far North. They dive under the surface in search of fish. Their feet are so far back on their bodies that they have a very difficult time walking on land. Only the Common Loon is regularly seen in Michigan. [eng] |

Common Loon
Loons are large birds, with wing spans approaching four feet, but they are also relatively heavy birds so the large wings are essential. They are extremely efficient diving birds, and their legs are set well back on the body, which aids in propulsion in the water but makes navigating on land nearly impossible. [eng] |
