The Arctic Loon, also known as the black-throated loon, is a species of bird that belongs to the Gavia genus. It is a medium to large-sized loon with a distinctive black and white plumage, a long neck, and a sharp, pointed bill. Arctic Loons are primarily found in the Arctic regions of North America, Europe, and Asia, where they inhabit freshwater lakes and ponds during the breeding season. They are skilled divers and swimmers, using their webbed feet to propel themselves underwater in search of fish, their main source of food. During the winter months, Arctic Loons migrate to coastal waters, where they can be seen bobbing on the waves and diving for prey.
