Another "hazard" that needs some respect is referenced in the following
report:
Quote:
"Loon pairs laid eggs (2) on all four nesting platforms and attended the nests throughout May. Three of the four platforms produced chicks; one single and two pairs of twins, for a total of five. Fishermen, unfortunately, chose to ignore the island marker again this year. As a result, the adults abandoned the nest in late May, leaving two eggs. We do not plan to replace this platform...
"Despite the warning markers, the...platform contained three fishing lures entangled in the wire mesh when platforms were removed from the lake in June."

(The nesting platforms provided for Loons are located in shallow water, and
this is the Loons' season).
