The image is a photograph of a common loon swimming in the water. The bird is facing towards the right side of the image, with its head turned towards the left side. It has a black head and neck, with a white stripe running down its back. The body of the bird is covered in black and white speckles, and its wings are slightly spread out. The water is calm and still, with small ripples visible on the surface. The background is a gradient of pink and blue, with the sun setting in the distance. The overall mood of the photograph is peaceful and serene.
