Help the Loons

Very interesting program last night by Harry Vogel, executive director of the Loon Center. While program was related to climate change and the impact on loon population, he spoke about the importance of not approaching nesting loons, or loons with chicks - even if you are in a silent kayak. The nesting loons can spook very easily and if they leave the nest, even on a 75 degree day, the eggs will "cook" in the nest without a parent to protect them. Please help protect out loons!
