An eye-catching portrait of a beloved Canadian icon!
For many Canadians, the common loon (Gavia immer) is synonymous with summer eveningsspent by the lake, where its wavering call embodiesthe independent spirit of the Canadian wilderness. The much-celebrated Canadian icon strikes a pre-flight pose on the reverse, where a mix of vibrant colour and cutting-edge engraving capture the natural beauty of the loon in its habitat.
