Well-known member
Today, I get this loon at Qingdao, Shandong province.
Is it a Black-throated Loon with white in front of eye?
Same bird.

Thank you.

Thank you very much!
Black-throated Loon and Red-throated Loon are common in Qingdao, and Pacific Loon has almost no record in China.
It appears that the Black-throated, like the Red-throated, will also have white in front of eye. It's new to me.
