Oh Tom. This is pretty upsetting. I can’t imagine the feelings you experienced observing these birds.

Yes, I too, try to find solace in knowing that there are good people trying to help.

I love loons, too. Seeing one pass through here is so rare–sad to think the numbers might be affected by this occurrence.
I guess the lesson here is–never take for granted the security of numbers–it can all change very rapidly.

Thanks for commenting sueorkin and I agree it is sad! I do feel at times that we need to be aware of what’s happening around us!

@ Marty – thanks and it is tragic seeing them this way! yes, that is huge and it’s in one of Mike’s links that I included on the bottom! But, being outside the US, it sometimes gets overlooked! thanks
@ Marg – I did see that post and how excellent that Robb is out their helping them! Surf Scoters! Such a shame!
@ Mary – sorry you did look and I hate that I have to post things like this on my site! Although I do feel that sometimes it is important to be aware of what is happening! Just imagine some of the problems would could have if they started drilling for oil in Alaska??
