The image is a photograph of a common loon swimming in a body of water. The bird is facing towards the right side of the image and its head is slightly tilted downwards. It has a black head and neck, with a white patch on its chest and a black beak. The body of the bird is covered in black and white speckles, and its wings are slightly spread out as it glides through the water. There are small ripples on the surface of the water, creating a ripple effect. The background is blurred, but it appears to be a calm lake or pond.
