Unfortunately, we will have no loon chicks this year. The artificial nest was placed at the same location and the loons started nesting . Then Cristobal hit! It blew the nest across the bay; it ended up lodged at Harris Point. Now the question was whether we should move the buoys to the new location or move the nest back to where the buoys where. It was still windy the next day and there was concern that the eggs would wash off the platform if we attempted to move it. So, we left it near Harris Point and moved the buoys. The loons checked it out but whether the eggs had been left alone too long, or the loons might have thought it was another pair’s nest, they never got back on the nest.
