Watercolor painting of a Common Loon rearing up out of the water, crushing an ice cube in its beak.

Today is the first #NationalLoonDay, marking the 65th anniversary that the MN Legislature made the Common Loon our State Bird!

I love drawing and painting these beauties, especially now that they're one symbol of our community standing up each other.

There was no National Loon Day. So a Minnesotan created one. There was no National Loon Day, until Larissa Loden invented one.

FYI, tomorrow, March 13, is the FIRST annual 'National Loon Day!' #Celebrate #NationalLoonDay #MinnesotaStrong
