The loons, 1 or 2 or 3, visit in the spring and again in the fall. They are a welcome visitor.

No, they haven't been spotted riding bikes in Madison. But this subject is on-topic for this list, because you can see them hanging out in Lake Monona, a few feet offshore from the Law Park bike path. To my mind at least, one of the rewards of cycling in Madison is the opportunity to enjoy my surroundings. This time of year, my surroundings include migrating waterfowl -- which is pretty cool. Loons are famous for being shy. But they're on vacation right now, so they're relatively relaxed about being watched, and you can get a better look than you might get on a northern lake. So -- if your interested in these things -- slow down while you're going past Monona Terrace, and take a look towards the lake. _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://www.danenet.org/mailman/listinfo/bikies _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://www.danenet.org/mailman/listinfo/bikies
