There were amazing numbers of Loons on the lake yesterday afternoon, in the
section from Aurora to Long Point and south. They seemed to continue
north past Aurora, so it must have been the northern half of the lake, for I
know they weren't apparent in those numbers back down at Myers. No one seems
to have mentioned this on the listserve.
I could truly count hundreds in each scope view, and the air was
filled with their musical piping and yodeling. Some were diving close to our
shore, but they reached all across the lake into the shimmer of the western
shore. It was quite a spectacle and I've never seen them on the water in
these numbers before.
