Gavia immer
Large diving bird with stout, dagger-like bill. Like other specialist diving birds, the legs are situated well back near the tail, making it difficult for loons to walk. Winter and summer plumages differ.
Observed in winter in coastal waters, bays, estuaries, and harbors. Common along the coast of Washington in winter.
