A person on L Torment, E Dalhousie, Kings Co, decided to install a floating Loon nesting platform he got from DNR this year. The latter suggested he install it near the island where they’ve nested in the past and so he did. This “island” only emerges if the water is low enough. This year the water levels here are quite high so it is still underwater. The platform went in in May and Canada Geese promptly occupied it and raised a family. Once they were gone the Loons did seem to notice it, probably because they were looking for their usual nesting site. I hear that a Loon has been on the platform full time for 1-2 weeks so presumably sitting on eggs. If all goes well and a chick (or chicks) hatches this will be a very late little Loon (into Aug). Seems at least 12 weeks are necessary to get young to the stage of self-sufficiency so possible. Nancy D Sent from my iPad
