Male Loons doing the Dance
We have seen male Loon doing the "dance" when we were in Green's Basin earlier this year. He was vocalizing alot.. although we were not close to the female and chick - he did not like where we were... he swam under the water, came up and did the dance, and we knew he was trying to lure us away from his family-so we left. The dance is a sign of confrontation but also distress.
