Hi Richard & Brian
This has indeed happened arround NS.In the Canso Area in Jan-Feb 2004 =
Stephen Bushell led a couple other guys in the sucessfull rescue of a =
doomed Common Loon. It was beleived to be the chick of a very late =
second nesting in our local Water Shed Lake. Only after the proper =
permition was given did the guys sucessfuly catch and then release the =
loon into Chedabucto Bay off the Fox Island beach. The following day the =
ever shrinking small opening in the lake was frozen over.
