LPC Loon Cam #2

[LoonCenter]

The eggs in The Loon Preservation Committee's second loon cam nest have started to hatch. Currently, the first chick is almost out of the egg.

Awesome! the little guy, or girl gets right into it.

Whichever parent was on the nest at 8:10 (near dusk), sure looked nervous. Her bill was open—which indicates thirst—and panting heavily, which suggests overheating. Certainly a well-groomed bird! ;)

One little-one was allowed out for a few minutes, and the cameraman was quick to focus on that short "romp". Legs unsteady, stretched a bit, a little bobble-head—then, it was back under the wing. :look:

The baby's were beating the hell out of each other the other day, And it wasn't play, I thought for sure 1 would end up dead but they say they're not fighting anymore.

Sibling rivalry.

This afternoon we spotted two adults and a chick northwest of loon island on Winnisquam. First one seen this year
