I was put off by the very streamlined forehead. The few I have seen had a
more angular forehead. but Googling Arctic loon this feature seems to be
quite variable with many birds showing a similar head shape to this bird.
the white flanks are really striking but I don't know what else it could
be then an Arctic loon.
