Yellow-billed Loon epic chase
Today consisted of no sleep, a 14 hour marathon chase, 5 people stuffed into my Honda Civic, and 1 awesome first state record bird at point blank range. Not to mention the single digit temps and 25mph headwind we faced as we scanned the St. Mary's River. Here are the best photos I managed of this incredible bird:

Incredible bird... Congrats on successfully twitching this eagerly-anticipated state first!
Finally a Michigan record for this species. Next up: Long-billed Curlew. Congrats on the good chase.
Lovely bird!
Congratulations, Matt! Gorgeous bird! Well done.
