On the morning of June 1st, 2 chicks jumped off the platform and swam away on their parents backs. This was 26 days after the loons first remained all day on the nest. For the next weeks or so, the loons tend to stay in the west bay of the lake, near the camp ground. Please be careful as you enjoy your boating on the lake.

On June 6th, the chicks arrived. We’re excited to announce that the loons had 2 chicks this season. This is a picture taken of the 2 day old chicks. We can all look forward to watching the parents teach the chicks how to dive and fly – and how to avoid those eagles. The eagles are back in their nest at the entrance to Mud Bay and there was at least one baby stretching his wings last week.
