Today's
www.cmonitor.com has a slightly different report on the same loon story and suggests the deceased birds could be migrating from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic. So, the loons were from Michigan, anyway. The front page photograph clearly shows them all wearing navy blue sweaters with a geat big, bright yellow 'M' on the front, for Michigan! Supposedly, the lead loon mistook the clean, snow free, black ice of Winnipesaukee for the Atlantic Ocean and led it's following column in for a very hard landing. This is terrible!
New Hampshire loons, after years of having to dodge all the nitwit high speed boaters are much too smart to make that mistake!
