We have a loon chick!

Sometime between June 23rd and June 30th the loons we’ve been seeing near the island hatched at least one chick. We first saw the chick on the evening of June 30th. The family has been hanging out near the island, so PLEASE watch for them while boating! The chick is young and is not able to evade a fast moving watercraft like its parents.
