Baby Loon
Went for a slow cruise into Winter Harbor last Friday 8/28 and went to the left ( don't know the name of coves ) all the way to the end and found two growing baby Loon's following their mom's. There were signs up in the cove stating that this was a loon breeding ground and I was suprised that you had to get so close to actually read what the signs said, with that said... There had to be at least 4 boats doing water sports along with a couple of jet skis that went into the direct path of these beautiful birds. I think that either the signs need to be MUCH bigger or need to make that end of the cove a no wake zone for the potection of these birds. The first is just two adult loons and the second ( look behind the adult ) is the growing baby, not the best picture.
