With two eggs in their nest, our loons are on “high alert” for danger-especially after dark. There was an incident just before 11 p.m. Thursday that freaked out our loon. It was the first of two encounters within an hour on the Night Watch.
Rising Waters

The rising waters of Lake Vermilion on Tuesday created a threat for "our" loons protecting two eggs on their nest. It became a day of hunting for building material, bolstering the nest, and nudging the eggs away from the water's edge.

Mother's Day for the Loons
มุมมอง 1424 หลายเดือนก่อน
Two weeks after arriving on Lake Vermilion from the south, “our” Mom and Dad Loon spent part of their Mother's Day evening not in the water, but exploring a small spot on one of their favorite islands. Mom Loon appeared to be checking out the location for her nest, and there was a lot of soft loon conversation about what they were seeing. We caught the encounter happening just before sunset, an...

Loon Chick's Spectacular First Day
มุมมอง 2.8Kปีที่แล้ว
Lake Vermilion, Minn. (VLA) The loons had hidden their nest deep in the brush of a small peninsula. It was hidden so well that in the hours after their chick hatched, Dad Loon couldn't figure out where Mom and baby chick had gone. They apparently had slipped away silently and secretly to the water for swim lessons. The chick's father hooted softly, calling and looking for them a little past 1 p...
Happy Loons on the Lake

Lake Vermilion, Minn. (VLA) Life is good at the lake, if you're a loon on Lake Vermilion. Dodging threats, facing off with eagles and beavers with courage, coming and going as you please, popping up where others might least expect you. "It sounds like they're laughing!" observed GailH, one of our TH-cam community loon-watchers. And she's so right. Out in the bay, seemingly with not a care in th...
Eagle vs loon
มุมมอง 298ปีที่แล้ว
Our Lake Vermilion loons are back after wintering on the Gulf Coast and Atlantic seaboard. We know from our 2022 Loon Count that there are at least 193 loons who call Lake Vermilion home, and we're watching two of them again this spring to see if they will build a nest. Thanks for being a part of our caring loon community on Lake Vermilion. For the year ahead we have improved our camera and add...

    I am sad to see this. I didnt think otters would steal eggs - they eat clams. I wonder why the first loon didnt fight them off.

    Amazing footage! That looks like a pretty big fish (do you know what kind?) the bird caught! The fish was struggling, but the hungry Heron managed to fully consume (alive?!) it all okay? It looked like the unlucky thing was desperately kicking sliding down that long throat! I wonder, does the large fish stand any chance of escaping if eaten in that condition? Maybe it can turn around inside the elastic throat/stomach and has a chance of survival here.
