The state bird of Minnesota is the loon.  Very appropriate!!!

Don't pick on the loon. Where I grew up I loved hearing them. Very specialized bird.
As kids, we would "chase" them in a row boat once in a while on this small lake (about a mile wide).
They let you get to 10 yards then disappear underwater.
We'd wait 20 seconds and they'd pop back up 40 yards away.
Sometimes go right under the boat. Very cool.
