The Elusive Loon Stamp and Coin Set Limited-Edition (2004).
Long synonymous with the Canadian north, the common loon is often heard but rarely seen. Reclusive and solitary, loon pairs prefer to nest in secluded lakes that can support a diet of small fish and crustaceans. A relatively large bird with wings that span up to 148 cm (5 ft.) from tip to tip and a 90 cm (3 ft.) long body, the loon is uniquely adapted to hunting underwater. Unlike most flying birds, loons have solid bones that enable them to dive to depths of up to 70 m (230 ft.). Its long, dagger-like beak is ideally suited for snaring fish. These special adaptations allow an adult loon to consume 10% of its body weight in fish each day.
