Loon Chick Update

 

Whew! Friday night into Saturday morning was rough. There was so much loon cacophony on the pond that I was sleepless wondering if a chick was killed. Unfortunately, my fears came true. There is only one chick left.

Let's hope this chick makes it through week 2 of life and thereafter! I shot some video this morning and both parents are feeding this chick almost continuously, and the chick is growing fast because of all this attention.
